This charming Morgan Super Sports has received a full restoration to a high standard, The restoration was carried out over a two year period with attention to detail, All components were reportedly refurbished or replaced where possible, The Morgan was discovered in the mid-1980s with a new Beetleback body, The engine was completely stripped and overhauled, All body panels are steel and coach painted (10+ coats), Finished in British Racing Green with Tan interior and ran very well during the photography session, SOLD ON BEHALF OF A STORAGE CUSTOMER. An ingenious concept, HFS Morgan built his first three-wheeler in 1909. Based around a tubular steel chassis frame, the designs low centre of gravity and advanced sliding pillar independent front suspension endowed it with superlative roadholding. Progressively developed, the single rear-wheel-driven platform played host to a variety of JAP, Matchless, Blackburne, Anzani and Ford powerplants over the years (though, the prototype used a Peugeot unit). Fearsome competition cars, Morgan three wheelers driven by the likes of HFS himself, Clive Lones and Harold Beart acquitted themselves well on race circuits and trial stages alike (Mrs Gwenda Stewart recorded 115.66mph during a record run at Montlhery in 1930). By 1933 Morgans three-wheeler chassis could be ordered with four types of body, namely: Super Sports, Sports Two-Seater, Sports Family and Family. The Super Sports was notable for its chromium-plated exhaust pipes that run the length of the body. Interest in Morgans of this period has never waned and, if anything, increased in recent times - the companys inspired decision to create a modern three-wheeler having brought the early cars to the attention of a new audience. Moreover, anybody who has seen them raced in anger frequently beating infinitely more powerful four-wheeled Morgans and other marques is likely to have acquired a firm admiration for the model., Reportedly discovered in marque enthusiast Bill Joness
