Edit: Checked and stand corrected. Morgan's first four-wheeler was the 4–4, for four-cylinder engine and four wheels. The first production 4-wheeled Morgan was released to the public in 1936 and is known as the Morgan 4–4 Series 1. Three-wheeler production continued alongside the 4–4 until 1952. You learn something everyday if you have an open mind.

Do I get 75%?

Thanks for the detail. A pipe-smoker should have this info at his fingertips. As an ex-pipe smoker, the info has left mine.
