This 1964 Morgan Plus Four 2+2 Roadster is an elegantly restored vintage Morgan that exemplifies the sportiness of a true British sports car. There are very few automobiles in history that can claim an unbroken lineage stretching from the pre-war era to the present day. The Morgan Plus Four is one of those cars. Founded in 1909 by H.F.S. Morgan in Malvern Link, Worcestershire, England, the company has occupied the same factory site for well over a century - hand-building each car with a craftsmanship and attention to detail that the modern automotive industry has largely abandoned. Morgan introduced the Plus Four in 1950 as a step up from the original 4/4, fitting the larger, more powerful Standard Vanguard engine into the traditional Morgan rolling chassis and giving serious drivers a genuinely quick, genuinely engaging sports car wrapped in bodywork that celebrated British coachbuilding tradition at its most pure. By 1964, the Plus Four

Vehicle Description

This 1964 Morgan Plus Four 2+2 Roadster is an elegantly restored vintage Morgan that exemplifies the sportiness of a true British sports car. There are very few automobiles in history that can claim an unbroken lineage stretching from the pre-war era to the present day. The Morgan Plus Four is one of those cars. Founded in 1909 by H.F.S. Morgan in Malvern Link, Worcestershire, England, the company has occupied the same factory site for well over a century - hand-building each car with a craftsmanship and attention to detail that the modern automotive industry has largely abandoned. Morgan introduced the Plus Four in 1950 as a step up from the original 4/4, fitting the larger, more powerful Standard Vanguard engine into the traditional Morgan rolling chassis and giving serious drivers a genuinely quick, genuinely engaging sports car wrapped in bodywork that celebrated British coachbuilding tradition at its most pure. By 1964, the Plus Four had matured into one of the most respected sports cars in the world. Powered by the Triumph TR4's 2.1-liter four-cylinder engine producing approximately 100 horsepower - a robust figure for the era given the Morgan's featherweight construction - the Plus Four delivered a driving experience of remarkable immediacy and involvement. With no driver aids, and thus nothing between the driver and the road but a tautly sprung chassis and a perfectly weighted steering rack, the 1964 Plus Four communicated everything. It was, and remains, one of the most honest and rewarding driver's cars ever built. The traditional Morgan construction method, unchanged in its essential principles across decades, contributed directly to that experience. An ash wood buck - hand-fitted by Morgan craftsmen in Malvern - formed the skeletal framework core of the body, while sliding pillar front suspension, Morgan's own patented design dating to the company's earliest years, provided a handling character unlike anything produced by Morgan's contemporaries. These were not anachronisms or affectations. They were deliberate engineering choices made by a company that understood exactly what its customers wanted and refused to compromise that vision for the sake of modernity. A 1964 Morgan Plus Four represents a singular opportunity in today's collector car market - a genuine piece of British automotive heritage, hand-built by craftsmen who took extraordinary pride in their work, at a moment when the Plus Four's development had reached a confident, fully-resolved maturity. This particular example was last cared for by a discerning enthusiast who enjoyed the car while under their stewardship. Under the bonnet of this Plus 4 is a Triumph-sourced 2,138cc Inline 4 cylinder engine fed by a pair of SU carburetors that in combination were said to have produced 105 horsepower when new. Additionally, this Plus Four's toolkit is housed under the bonnet should you need it. The TR4 inline 4 is mated to a 4 speed manual transmission that makes this sporty little Morgan an absolute hoot to drive. A charming rumble emanates from a single tailpipe while exhaust gases leave this Plus 4's powerplant. This '64 Morgan Plus Four has fantastic exterior options. The front chrome bumper is accented with a pair of chrome bumper guards and it is topped with a pair of driving lights that give both a nostalgic feel as well as a bit more visibility in low light situations. Mounted atop both fenders are chrome-trimmed parking lights along with chrome outside mirrors that greatly improved visibility while squeezing into that tight parking spot or while making the occasional lane change. Further, the louvered bonnet is secured with a Morgan-embroidered leather bonnet strap that provides additional security while driving as well as a charming British accent of an older time. Bringing this classic British sports car to a complete stop is much easier thanks to the front disc brakes. Riding on a set of 15 inch chrome wire knock-off wheels, each mounted with a Michelin retro-style radial tires, this 1964 Morgan +Four has an outstanding look and even better ride. Additionally a rear-mounted matching spare tire further elevates the look of this vintage Morgan while also proving to be quite useful should you ever need it. Mounted below the rear-mounted spare is the chrome rear bumper and chrome bumper guards that match the front end look of this car. This vintage Morgan also comes with a black vinyl convertible top, matching tonneau cover and removable windows should you need a bit more protection from the elements. The handcrafted body of this 1964 Morgan has been refinished in Regency Red paint that completes the exterior look of this sporty little import. The interior of this 1964 Morgan Plus Four is absolutely exquisite! The front bucket seats along with the rear bench seat are upholstered in Cinnamon leather, making for an upscale look and feel. The matching carpeting, door panels, wood-trimmed dash and shifter, and 4-spoke Ivory-painted steering wheel all appear to be in great shape as well while retaining a wonderful stock appearance. Taking its cues from British race cars of the era, this 1964 Morgan Plus Four comes equipped with a vast array of instrumentation by Smiths, including a 140 MPH speedometer, 6,000 RPM tachometer, amp gauge, temperature gauge, oil pressure gauge and fuel gauge. Mounted atop the wood-trimmed dash are a center-mounted chrome rearview mirror straddled by a pair of adjustable wind deflectors that further add to charming appeal of this wonderful classic Morgan. Whether you're buying your very first classic car or you're a seasoned British sports car enthusiast, this 1964 Morgan Plus Four would make an excellent choice.
