About this car

The 4/4 was Morgan's first four-wheeled car, and pre-war examples like this 1938 Series 1 are scarce. This one has the 1,122cc Coventry Climax four-cylinder engine, a single Solex carburettor and a four-speed Moss manual gearbox. Only 713 Climax-engined 4/4s were built.

Chassis 638 was first registered in July 1938 as FKE 775, a plate it still carries. The page describes it as matching numbers, with the original buff logbook and a current V5C. It was in one family's hands for about 40 years and finished in dark green with black trim.

A total restoration was completed in 2006, and just 1,046 miles have been covered since. A clutch problem has kept it off the road for around ten years, so it needs light re-commissioning before use.
