Two comments; My '63 +4 is a sapphire blue GM paint used (I think) on
Camaros. Slight metal flake. I recentley added a new fabric top and had it
made in dark blue and the car looks great. the paint job is about 10 years
old, and has held up amazingly well. I have picked up a few awards at Morgan
events over the last years.So I too have "da Blooz" for Moggies.
Second comment: I added something called "Water Wetter" to the cooling
system. Picked it up at Moss Mtrs, but I think hot rod/speed shops carry it.
I don't honestly know if it helped or not. What is it and does anyone either
endorse it or disaprove of its use in a Morgan?
