Experts in the social graces—and there are many—don’t agree about much.

Inspiring! I just bought my first moggie (a totally restored '62 Plus 4 roadster) after many years with a Triumph Spitfire and before that, a couple of Minis (61 850, 63 997), a Jag (Mk XIX), a pair of Mustang GT convertibles and a few other rides in between.

I raced with Patrick in his Morgan at Portland's PIR and Road America, I always enjoyed our post race talks. He was a great competitor behind the wheel of the Morgan, the car was truley an extension of himself. Great article, I loved the original magazine profile and probably still have the issue in my library.
