Quote:10 brownie points for the first to know what it is

My car knowledge does not go back that far but the front hood emblem sure looks like Bentley wings...

same country, and while the car looks old that model is still made by this english company.... and it was the last plus 8 to be shipped to the states which was in 2004.... the plus 4 is still available

10 brownie points for the first to know what it is Tongue

Your wife has good taste in cars. The Morgan Plus 8 is one of my favorites. That aluminum Rover V8 engine makes it a fun car to drive but I've always wondered about termites and the wood frame on this car. Oh well, if you drive fast enough I guess they can't catch up. :lol: Your bike ain't too shabby either, nice Wing.

WOW!!!

I came from the car business (years ago) but never had heard of a wood framed car. Had to double check my buddy Vic!
