I am suprised that it did not appear that the fuel lines were cleaned , the oil changed and the motor was checked to be turning over freely. This may have been done but not shown, but if the video is taken on it's face value a lot of damage could have been caused to the engine by just attenpting to fire it up without proper preparation.
My friend had one of those back in 1965. I rebuilt the motor that was in it. Turned out to be an English Ford motor. Certainly no performance car, sloppy oddball shifter, wooden frame. To be generous it was rolling junk. My pal Tony got rid of it. The car looked classy, but that was all.
@@MadMomma-kj9ks haha it was a good guess in fact a well set up 4/4 with the 1600 Ford engine producing around 115bhp was a very fast nippy car in the 1970s I had 3 of them over 20 years !! Cheers.
I note there are other comment regarding this, but I have to say that it would appear(as usual) that there is no mention oil checking/changing & draining & putting in fresh fuel etc?!!!
Allen Millyard is so much better than this. Why is he lending his name to this pantomime? There is no way that he would just start up an old engine without checking the oil etc (the water pump is leaking a bit). Cole must have photos of him riding an off the shelf Chinese bike or something.
Ironically I was in conversation with the owner of this particular Morgan and arranged a viewing, unfortunately work got in the way on the day of viewing and I never made it, the following week this episode was screened, I couldn’t believe it, Henry Cole stole it from under my nose. ☹️
Bargain and a great resto project. Not about the money, it’s about the pleasure of resurrecting an old car and that’s priceless. Just hope the ash frame is intact!

The dream team, and Jelly Bean supervising 😊
I really don't know why fuzz is even in this program he never dose FA
It's obvious why.
Would be a lot cheaper to simply buy a good one in the first place.
Enjoyed this series, miss Sam though, nice to see Fuzz without the other Pratt Tim.

What about the TR2 next to it
The chassis is rusted only 2mm thick!
Who on earth would buy such an old car without putting it up open a ramp?
Maybe baldrick from Blackadder could add to the show
What happened to Sam.?
I think Henry knows a bit more than it appears otherwise this programme wouldn't work.
But then again😊

Its telly darling - its entertainment….you know - Not Real!
Because the owner of the production company is a good friend.
It was a bargain, I would love to find one like that for the money!
What a friends for ,if not to stitch up lol
keep Millyard away from the dogs or he. will put two heads on it 😮!!!!
Millie is the only Weapon on Earth that wears tea-cosies. Still a Weapon of Mass Construction.

Yoou were lucky he did,
He did you a favour, It's a SHED
Horrible in so many ways
No offence but Fuzz isn't needed
It’s a 4/4 not a 4-4.
9 k for a resto job??? a plus 4 of that vintage would be ok but it needs another 10k spent on it!!! crying out for a set of wires as well
Why boover
2 old godgers ready for the old people's house 😊
So it is on the road is it mot tax ? No trade plates
Tax and MOT exempt at that age. I am sure he will have a traders policy insurance wise

Its telly darling….you think they should be charged?
