Equipment
Triumph TR2 engine, centerlock wire wheels, dual rear-mounted spares, Moto-Lita woodrim steering wheel, wood dash, black cloth boot cover.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Rough top frame with paint chipping off. Paint crack around the left front marker lens, but otherwise good quality paint. Fuel has leaked out around the filler cap gasket. Small ding in the left headlight bezel. Very good interior and dash wood with restored gauges. Restored underneath. An older restoration in better than average driver condition for the restoration's age.
Market commentary
This is a relatively rare transitional model, made in the year that Morgan made the change from flat radiators to the cowled shape that the company has used ever since. It sold for $49,100 at Mecum Denver back in July, which was a fair number that was matched by the bidders in Monterey. The California dealership that consigned it is hoping for a successful flip, however, and have it advertised for 65 grand on their site. Lots of luck with that.
