Lot 037: 1955 MORGAN PLUS 4 DROPHEAD COUPE
Classic Cars, H&H Classic Auctions Ltd (27th July 2005)
This particular example should be faster still as we are informed by the vendor that it has apparently been fitted with a 2138cc Triumph TR4 powerplant at some stage (a common enhancement). Finished in maroon with black leatherette upholstery (believed original), it is described as being in good overall condition. Benefiting from Lucas halogen headlamps, a Kenlowe fan and twin rear mounted spare wheels, this rare and desirable Morgan shows an unwarranted 45,653 miles on its odometer.
PLEASE NOTE: This car is the rarer two seater drophead coupe with the 'highline' and 'suicide' doors and as such is one of only 17 produced.
