Morgan 4\/4<\/em><\/strong> was the Morgan Motor Company’s<\/strong> first car with four wheels. It appeared in 1936.\u00a0Its model designation “4-4” (later “4\/4”) stood for four wheels and four cylinders. Earlier\u00a0Morgans<\/strong> had been three-wheelers, only, typically with V-twin engines. Apart from a break\u00a0during World War II (and the period March 1951 to September 1955) the 4\/4<\/strong> has been in\u00a0continuous production until today.<\/p>\n

In 1982 The 4\/4<\/strong> was fitted with a Ford CVH engine of 1597 c.c. taken from the Escort XR3.\u00a0Modifications had to be made to fit a \u2018north south\u2019 installation and a Cortina gearbox.\u00a0Power was 96 bhp at 6,000 rpm giving a 0 to 60 mph time of around 10.0 seconds. The following\u00a0year the 4 Speed gearbox was replaced with the Capri\/Sierra five-speed gear box.<\/p>\n
