Here is a summary of what I have so far on tools for the morgan.
Interest tidbit I ran across on the Morgan, in a parts list they give the
following tools for the Morgan Series II and Plus 4
the V4 stands for the plus four series, but it implies tools were
standard for both. It does not mean all of these bits came with the car,
but the tool kit was standard at least from Fergus Motors.
now this set may have been changed later, but at least for the plus 4 and
series II 1955-60 this applies as standard.
I have included a few comments on the tool kit from earlier emails, will
up date this once more for the list.

Futher questions
Who made the screwdriver and pliers?
Can anyone find a spare parts list for the morgans in the early 60's?
Even later would help bridge the gap.
the plus 4 and series IV and V would cover the right period?
was there a tool roll for the jack?
