THE PHOENIX
In
2002, our car was destroyed in a major accident and fire. Hubris,
community good will of many people and luck lead to its re-creation as
an ideal. With the help of the Morgan Motor Company and many kind hearts
in the Morgan Community, we succeeded! I am often asked for the car's detail.
This is an attempt to jog my own memory as much as be informative.
