This Morgan 3-Wheeler got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1936 Morgan MX4 Super Sport is a right-hand-drive three-wheeler that is finished in green over color-coordinated upholstery and powered by a liquid-cooled 990cc Matchless V-twin paired with a three-speed manual transmission. The car was acquired by the seller in 1994 and underwent a subsequent refurbishment completed in the early 2000s that included a repaint, an interior retrim, and an engine rebuild. Equipment includes 18” wire wheels, front drum brakes, side-mounted exhaust pipes, luggage rails, and a rear-mounted spare. This Morgan 3-wheeler is now offered with an aluminum trailer, a tonneau cover, a soft top boot, spare parts, handwritten notes, and a clean Florida title in the seller’s name.

The seller notes dents, dings, and loose bodywork around the car.
