344 CNM - Link to "i.pinimg.com" , https://pds.exblog.jp/pds/1/201210/18/14/a0231314_19303340.jpg ✓ Taxed Tax due: 01 May 2019 ✓ MOT Expires: 10 September 2019 Vehicle make: MORRIS Date of first registration: September 1960 Year of manufacture: 1960 Cylinder capacity (cc): 2792 cc Fuel type: PETROL Export marker: No Vehicle status: Tax not due Vehicle colour: WHITE  Ford V6 from a dead Granada so should be a bit quick - at least in a straight line, but quick cornering without falling over could be interesting .... Apparently before its current restoration it "was found in a very sorry state after already being extensively customised, at one point with gullwing doors and a big American V8." from here. Which is a bit of a mind-boggling prospect. |

With a large and heavy V-6 and associated transmission mounted fairly low, the c of g wouldn’t be that high, bearing in mind that everything above floor level is mainly thinnish sheet steel. The apparent suspension mods and wider wheels suggest that the cornering might rather be limited by sudden breakaway than by excessive roll. Initial understeer might very quickly become terminal oversteer especially with that short wheelbase. -- Last edit: 2018-12-08 23:24:41 |
