AI Listing Summary

This 1936 Morgan 4/4 Series 1 has been with its current owner for approximately 50 years. It was fully restored by Martyn Stendall some twenty five years ago and presents in Jaguar Brooklands British Racing Green with black interior. Showing a gentle patina from its travels, it's a well-loved example.
