Getting back on subject, is it confirmed that the DHC sold on Bangers & Cash was a two-seater? If so, then all that talk on the programme and in the auction hall of it being 1 of only 4 surviving was (to coin a word) bollocks.
I think it was bollocks even if it was a 4 seat. The SnobMog page lists 51 made with a large number still in existance.
If it was just the Mathewson bloke, then I would not be surprised, as he constantly talks bollocks, but I thought MacDonald was a Morgan specialist?
Most of the Snobmog production run was exported. Export cars got the TR2 engine, UK spec cars had the Vanguard engines.
Mine is a UK car which was imported into the States circa 1969 by the late Bill Fink and then returned to the UK circa 2007 in very poor condition.
Even though they are a 4 seater they are actually built on a 2 seater chassis.
With a new body frame and panelling, I'm probably 10 grand down already but the end result will be worth it.
