Hi All and Art: I too owned a Morgan for a few years. 1966 4 seater, red with black fenders and chrome wire wheels. Always overheated when driving in the summer and leaked rain in the winter. It was a beautiful car but a real pain in the A**. Bob Johnson Hi Bob, Now why would you take the Morgan out in the summer? It's just too hot for that. And now why would you take the Morgan out in the winter? That's just too cold. And it doesn't exactly have electronic traction control for the snow. So what's left? It's a wonderful open car for a cool summer's evening. Of course if it rains you had better plan on spending ten minutes putting up the top--so plan ahead. The top really doesn't leak---much. So do I love driving it? You bet. I love being able to put my fingers on the asphalt while sitting in the car. I love having to lean over to the left when making a hard left turn--and then to the right when turning right. I thought I died and went to heaven when I bought that car. What I really want to find is a 1920 aviators leather helmet and goggles to wear when I'm driving. --Art Heller ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

For what they actually send you, you can't afford to be "social", nor can you really feel "secure." -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, June 27, 2007 11:18 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Phono-L] OT-vintage car In a message dated 6/27/2007 11:02:02 A.M.
