As Chas points out the VW type rims would probably
bolt on. IMHO I would offer that they would look
quite out of place on your early Morgan. I happen to
think the steel wheels and hub caps look quite nice.
However if you are determined to look for something
else, I would try to contact American Racing or
Panasport and see if they would simply drill a set of
period style alloys for your Morgan or perhaps they
would have some listed as after market for VW's.
