zippy4898 ◊ 2007-02-08 16:15	Over ten years ago, I sold a race-prepped Triumph cylinder head to the guy who bought and restored this Morgan Plus 4 after it was crushed in the above scene. He said it had been a very sad, neglected car that barely ran and had a rusted chassis, that had been given a quickie paint job for the movie only to make it look good for the few scenes it was in. He said the movie makers had welded-on a small frame work to the rear axle onto which flanged railroad-car-type wheels were mounted. The wheels engaged with small rail tracks on the ground to assure the car was pushed straight backwards when the 4X4 was pushing it. The rails were later photgraphically removed from the filmed scenes. Rest assured, the condition in which it left the movie lot was not much worse that when it got there, according to its buyer. He had already purchased a new chassis and many other parts - If you're out there, I'd be curious if you ever got it back on the road - for an agriculturally-simple car, Morgan restorations tend to get stretched out over the years - mine took 5 years!

However, two weeks before running the finished product at Limerock he passed away of a sudden heart attack. (I was engaged to his son at the time who is aptly named after the car (Morgan)). Have no clue as to the where abouts to the car at this time as my fiance's step mom retained ownership of the car after Bill's death. Would love to know where the car is now. Rest assured, it was beautiful once completed.
kstadden ◊ 2008-12-25 04:22	On the Discovery HD Theater channel, there's a series called "Chasing Classic Cars" in which Wayne Morini buys the car, gets it going again, races it at Lime Rock, and promises to hold onto it for his daughter so that it stays in the family. They're replaying it December 25, 2008 at 9:30. Here's a paste from the show description: Chasing Classic Cars Wayne Goes Racing TV-PG, CC Wayne fulfills a man's last wish as he restores the 1960 Morgan Roadster from the film, War of the Roses, which the buyer purchased. He had planned to go vintage racing with the car, but he didn't live to see the day. Now, Wayne continues his mission.
