Hello. I hope I'm doing this right. Here's the background: I have a friend that many of you know, Scott Willoughby. I've known Scott since about 1981 and lived with him in a house in Lebanon, NJ (yes

Morgans, especially older ones, are about as simple as an automobile can be to work on, and rewarding and fun if you enjoy doing so.If you DON'T like working on cars, no amount of simplicity will hel

You ask some very good questions at this stage of your life. Better to ask these questions now than after you've bought the car and start to wonder why "normal American" wrenches don't fit the nuts

Now I've become a man of some means and mean to acquire a Morgan of my own. I've got my sights set on a 1961 +4 that's about at the right level of "repair" for me. Wherein comes the rub. The most com

Get an Acura NSX. If you're a "man of some means" and with no mechanical interest, spend your money, save your time, and stay away from Morgans. The NSX will run reliably forever and has a decent hea

Just so it does not appear that everything goes well all the time. Barbara Ann navigated Saturday at the M. G. 's rally (Silly Chilley Willey Ralley) in heavy rain. Matilda came in second behind Mik

Hey JD, You've heard that "if ya gotta ask what it costs, ya can't afford it?" Well, if ya can debate buying a Mog of any description, "ya don't need it." Us folks who buy these cars and enjoy them,

If you really want to drive the car, you are going to spend some time fiddling with it. 99.00% reliability requires systematic preventive maintenance. Any auto training course will be a good idea, bu

Go for it! You can't loose. You'll have fun, learn a lot (about something...) and maybe become addicted. You can't have a better mentor than Scott to give advise & help when needed. Morgan folks are
