Re: Making Them Go
Was given a front suspension "rubber snubber" at the Spares Fair, which was possibly original. Anyone have any views as to whether this was likely to be an original item in terms of size or detail ? http://www.morganseriesone.com/frontsuspension/snubber1.jpg http://www.morganseriesone.com/...

Re: Another Find?
Hi there,
I think it was EOM498 while in the UK, exported ~1974...
Sister car to EOM491, (both supplied to the agents, Colmore, Birmingham, Dec 1938), once used by George Proudfoot in competitions, now beautifully restored.

Re: 1939 "Le Mans" CSF266
Hi there, Will post the whole article shortly. The car in the "Light Car" image is BNP370/FXD280, the bonnet fasteners are still the early large AMAL type as seen in the images of the car at Le Mans (escutcheon plate fastened by a single setscrew, type not used since car #0421). The radiat...

Re: 1939 "Le Mans" CSF266
Hi John, Thanks to Jake Alderson I now have a copy of the article in The Light Car regarding the introduction of the Le Mans Replica. As the image shows, the car was modelled upon the appearance of BNP370 as it was in Sept 1938. Another Feb 1939 Le Mans Replica was HPH750, as owned by the Render bro...

Re: 1939 "Le Mans" CSF266
Hi there, If I am reading the timeline correctly, at the time that the “Le Mans Replica” was advertised for sale (Feb 1939), BNP370 was still in September 1938 Brooklands MCC trim, as suggested by descriptions of the advert (which I haven’t seen). Thus if any orders were forthcoming, I would expect ...
