Bob, are you sure that is a replica Morgan? If it is, it is the best I've ever seen.
Love the Imp.

 

Anyone know what kind of rims those are?

Fred, I can only go by the caption given. How about I just remove "replica " from the post?

 

Fred...post edited!

 

The only item I see that is odd is the spare wheel. Many F Type owners use a different wheel for the rear so as to get a bigger tire in it. It's odd that it is not on the rear hub but maybe it already has one. Morgan wheels are expensive.

 

That is quite the line up.

 

Prezel built midget car which drove from California to Washington D.C. ...through Yosemite National Park. later sold to cowboy movie star Hoot Gibson. Looks a lot like a WING built car. AnceStory Archives: Smallest Auto in the World "Hoot Gibson Special" driven by Gus Prezel

Loving that! Any more info about it?

 

I played with a sort of tribute to JET1 here: https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum...topic-photoshop-thread.1331407/#post-15515794

 

Ziggy, I knew someone would ask...but ,sorry, I don't. Have a great day!

 

I guess there’s this. Not particularly fast, but sounds great.

 

I love the hillclimb specials; have the book on them. I guess Bloody Mary is the most famous and may have started the whole trend.

 

I'm not able to attach a photo.
