Now that's what I call a trip.  How did you carry luggage and stuff?
What we need with Morgans is a small trailer.

You sure do!  I think that would be a great article!!!  I really need
to get another Morgan as a play car and do things like what you are
talking about.  Make it mine and drivable.  Find a Pinto OHC engine
and put it in, a 5 speed gear box, Gemmer steering box, etc.
