Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1933 Morgan Super Sports, known as 'Castrol,' is a pre-war three-wheeler with an 1100cc JAP V-twin engine. It's a non-running project that was previously exhibited at the Haynes International Motor Museum, but now requires mechanical work and cosmetic attention due to storage.
Condition

Description

Based around a tubular steel frame, its low centre of gravity and advanced 'sliding pillar' independent front suspension endowed it with excellent road-holding.
Progressively developed, the single rear-wheel-driven platform played host to a variety of JAP, Matchless, Blackburne, Anzani and Ford powerplants over the years (though, the prototype used a Peugeot unit).

The Super Sports was notable for its chromium-plated exhaust pipe...
