The first four-wheeled, four-seater Morgan appeared in 1936 powered by Coventry Climax's 1,122cc, four-cylinder, inlet-over-exhaust engine. Two years later a special Climax-engined sports model competed at Le Mans, qualifying for the Biennial Cup. A special Standard 1,267cc overhead-valve four-cylinder engine was introduced for the 1939 season and would continue to power the 4/4 model to 1950. Reintroduced with Ford 100E power in 1955 after a five-year hiatus, the 4/4 was regularly updated with more modern engines and currently is powered by the 1.6-liter Ford Sigma unit. THE MOTORCAR OFFERED The known history of this British classic begins in 1984 when it was purchased by its third owner.

The car was kept under the care of this gentleman for over 30 years who used it sparingly. During this time, the car was upgraded to series IV type brakes with disks up front, and new Dayton Wire wheels were fitted on all four corners. The interior is reported to be in original condition including the cream faces instruments and Brooklands steering wheel. In regard to the body, the front bumper and grill insert appear to have been replaced, but the remainder of the exterior shows to be largely original. Noted within some invoices are details of some paint work along with some repairs. More recently, brake caliper, cylinder, and carburetor rebuilds were conducted and are also documented.

The car appears in generally fair condition, but more importantly, is a solid runner. Ready to use on those sunny summer days, this Morgan is ready to provide its next owner with the thrills of classic motoring.

This car is titled under the model year 1962
