1984 Morgan 4/4 CVH - Starfire Motorsport

Description

VIN/Chassis code C6500

This is a 1984 UK standard 4/4 with the Ford CVH 1.6 engine as standard, mated to the Ford Type 9 transmission. This particular unit underwent an extensive servicing and partial restoration over 2019/2020 including engine servicing, transmission rebuild, paint, and interior work. The engine was fitted with a Piper Road Fast camshaft, re-jetted and rebuilt carb, full bottom end service with all bearings, new piston rings, seals, etc.. Timing belt and water pump were done at that time as well as cylinder head servicing including slight skimming and valve servicing. The transmission was overhauled by Leek Transmissions with the longer 1st gear, new slave cylinder, etc.. New brake master cylinder and brake pipes done. Suspension was also refreshed at that time with uprated dampers and springs. This summer a new Twillfast top was made for it, using all factory style fittings. Also included are the “Brooklands” speedster style front windscreens, although some hardware was missing upon my purchase so I have not used them myself. I have a binder of documents from the restoration process and other servicing, including photos. Nearly all mechanical components have been serviced over the last 5-years, making this a great little driver!

Since importation, all documents were filed and I have a clean Minnesota title for it in my name. I was lucky enough to personally pick it up and drive it to the port in Liverpool and also pick it up when it landed in New Jersey! Since then, I have put a little over 1,000 miles on it and it has been a wonderful little driver!

Items to note; This is a 40-year old car and has blemishes as to be expected. During the restoration process the dash was left in original condition, as tradition for these, but as such shows some wear! There are several paint blemishes including standard chips and scratches from regular use, and one small paint blister/crack on the nose right above the radiator which is seemingly common. The engine from standard has a breather that would normally vent to the ground, but I have fitted a temporary catch can/bottle as to not leave any stains on the garage flooring. This can be easily removed if desired, and I typically take it out to clean it before shows/events.

The car is available for viewing near Shakopee, MN, by appointment only.
