Michael,
Probably the easiest way, is to NOT let the car start! To that end,
cut the low voltage wire going from the ignition switch to the coil. Install
a standard (single pole, single throw) toggle switch in line. Mount it
some place out of the way. When you get out of the car, turn it off.
No spark - No start. Less than $5 and 15 minutes of insurance!
On the down side, if you know how to hot wire a car, the Morgan is
very vanerable with the solenoid on the firewall. However, if someone
knows the car and wants it, all the have to do is call a tow truck.
How much do you want to spend?
