     Here is a list of extras from a dealer's list dated 4/66.  The list 
     probably came from Walter Hagen & Co., a German dealer, judging from 
     other info that came with it.  It was in a notebook of Morgan sales 
     brochures collected by someone during the 60's):  
     
     Price - List (Duty Free Basis)
     
     Heater (Standard Fitting on Plus 4 Plus) ........ $35
     Defroster ....................................... $ 6
     Leather Upholstry ............................... $28
     Wire Wheels (Standard Fitting on Plus 4 Plus, Super Sports and Plus 4 
     Competition) .................................... $119
     Tonneau Cover ................................... $26
     Brooklands Steering Wheel ....................... $10
     Rear Bumper ..................................... $14
     Windscreen Washer ............................... $12
     Sliding Sidescreens (Plus 4 two-seater and 4/4 only) $20
     Laminated Windscreen ............................ $7
     Carburettor Air Filter .......................... $21
     
     
     Here are the prices for the cars:
     4/4 Ser. V   Two-seater tourer $1652, Competition $1820
     Plus 4       Two-seater 2010, Drophead 2184, Super Sports $2660
     
     Interestingly, the Plus 4 2-seater competion model ($2170) is crossed 
     out in red ink on this page.  Perhaps this model was discontinued 
     about this time.  It is listed with the 120 BHP engine as is the SS.
     
     Oh, and no radios on the list, but then Morgan might have been willing 
     to supply one given $, a friend at the factory, or whatever.

Gang,
     
   It's me again.  Another question,  does anyone know of (or if) there was
an owners manual for the cars.  If so, is there a source for reproductions?
     
Also other than what is in the "Original Morgan" book, what about options? 
When I purchased my car, it had a radio installed.  It was a portable with 
a slide bracket mounted under the dash.  Consiquently, it could be removed 
and it was also battery powered.  However, I don't think it was stock.
