Dave might not be too far off target. As most of you all know by now,
I spent 4 years (from 88-92) restoring my 65 Morgan 4/4 Series V. During
that time frame a move came out "War of the Roses". Anyone remember it.
The little sports car that Danny DeVito (sp) had was a Morgan +4. His
wife ran over it with here 4x4. That car was a real Morgan. (BTW for
anyone that doesn't know anything about Morgans, the Factory only makes
450 cars a year. There were only 639 of my cars built during the
production run. Morgan is the oldest surviving Independant car manufacturer
in the world.) The car in the movie had to be reinforced to
allow her 4x4 to drive over it. After the movie was made, a fellow
bought the scrap, restored it and is now racing it!
