It was the company's first car with four wheels, and its '4-4' (later 4/4) was in reference to the four wheels and four cylinders. The Morgan Motor Company was founded in 1910 by H.F.S. Morgan and run by Peter Morgan, son of H.F.S. until his death in 2003. Based in Malvern, Worcestershire, United Kingdom, the company remain in production today. They are the world's longest running production vehicle. The early Morgan 4/4 models were powered by Coventry Climax's 1,122cc four-cylinder inline-over-exhaust engine. Two years later, a special Climax-engined sports model raced at LeMans, qualifying for the Biennial Cup. For the 1939 season, a special Standard 1,267cc overhead-valve four-cylinder engine was introduced and would continue to power the 4/4 model to 1950. After a five-year hiatus, the Morgan 4/4 was re-introduced in 1955 with Ford 100E power. New engines and modifications would continue throughout the years. In February of 1968, Morgan introduced the 4/4 1600 powered by a variety of Ford 1599cc Kent engines offering 70 - 96 horsepower depending on setup and configuration. By March of 1982, a total of 3,513 had been production.
