May I introduce: 007 - The Black Devil
As asked by some of you chaps I finally found the time to study the science "how to upload photos on TM" (I hope it´ll work...) and show you some photos of my part of Malvern´s Finest: My "Black Devil", a 2011 MORGAN 4/4 Sport in "all black". The concept of the car was to distill as much as possible the pure MORGAN esprit (on 4 wheelers) which means (at least to me): - Narrow body - As pure as possible (= no "embellishment" at all, e.g. bumpers, badge bar, luggage rack, etc., even no third reflector-"eye" on the back just like the first Sport-models ....) - As classic looking as possible (even within the MORGAN-"canon" as a classic car in itself) - Sporty look Many details had to be modified to get the look I wanted (especially the one-of-a-kind dashboard that MK realised corresponding to my design/draft (with his kind advice and experience)). I for myself am very happy with the result.  See you in July in Shelsley Walsh for the Thrill-on-the-hill and the factory´s centenary celebration! Kind regards, George

Looks great George  I look forward to seeing it in the metal at Shelsley. J, somewhere I still have a white boilersuit, doesn't fit me, but, 'tis not white "racing overall" that I suspect Morgan are hoping for... I was talking to one of the Marshalls at Shelsey about the white racing overall: he told me it is a painters overall and cost about £20.

I've a pukka 50's "Farini" style white racing overalls which I intend to wear if I've got to be in a uniform. I was hoping just to have to wear a badge!

AT LAST George! Well it was worth the wait...some great photos. I remember admiring your dash when we last met and I'd forgotten just how nice...and different it looked!
I'm intrigued with the gear knob....does that fit on with grub screws?
Looking forward to meeting up again at Shelsley Walsh...I'll be there apparently wearing a white boiler suit...or so I've been instructed! Lovely car. Well done. John I have a round Momo gear knob off my old +4 if you want it. It fits by 1 grub screw.
