Then there are those who had to take it out in the first rain for 6 weeks to
get a persistent vibration investigated and managed to spin it into a brick
wall.....:-(
Fortunately the damage is not too great so it still runs, but it looks like
I am in the market for an Aluminium rear Bumper, some body work and possibly
a new luggage rack if I cant convert the current one back to a rectangle
form its current parallelogram appearance. All the woodwork seems to have
survived (phew!!!)
Incidentally the vibration was the prop shaft rear universal joint after 5
years and 34000 miles. It goes back in next Monday to have that fixed after
I take out the transmission tunnel (to get the cost down). Guess what; the
weather forecast is wet (help!!!)

The Morgan folk whose cars are running are all out enjoying the Spring
weather. Then of course there are those of us who are under our bonnets
trying to get our Morgans running so we can enjoy the Spring weather. You
sound like you are in the second group. What's up?
I just got mine back together last night. I had a clutch slave cylinder
freeze up in rush our traffic Tuesday evening in Houston, not a pretty
picture, but the 4/4 is back together in time to go to the Classic Wheels
and Wooden Keels Show on Saturday.
