Morgan made its name with its fearsome brand of three-wheelers and the 4-4 (later 4/4) was its first four-wheel creation (4-4 stood for four wheels and four cylinders). Launched in 1936, it was initially powered by an 1122cc Coventry Climax engine, but this was superseded in 1939 by a 1267cc Triumph unit driving through a Moss gearbox. It proved extremely popular and, by 1939, 663 Two-Seater examples had been produced.
The sale car is one of those 663, as it vacated the Malvern factory in 1939. It is finished in the pleasing combination of Blue over Black and trimmed in Black leather. The vendor describes the bodywork, paintwork, interior trim, four-cylinder engine and four-speed gearbox as all being in `excellent' condition, and is now offering the Morgan for sale complete with history from new, including: restoration details; photos for the `50s and `60s; contemporary road tests; owners' manuals etc. A relatively rare opportunity.
All successful bids must be paid in full by midday the day after the auction at the latest.
