Aeroman's Special Project...More Photos
Morgan Motor Company Special Vehicle Projects.
Here are the rest of the photos...showing the complete car. Sorry about the teasers earlier...I just couldn't resist!
I'll leave Brian to tell you more about the car once he's back from Salon Prive. But the photos tell quite a lot about the detail although whilst I peered under the car, it wasn't possible to take any photos. There did appear to be some louvres under there! I knew Brian wouldn't let we louvre counters down! I'm sure he will love to tell you more about the underpinnings.
The Rocket Red is stunning and really shows the car off well...and the scratch from the photographer's ( NOT me or Richard/Redmorgan!) stepladders is well hidden!
The interior highlights all the materials used in a traditional Morgan, with brushed alloy, leather, wood and paint and if anyone is wondering about the centre of the dash....thats an iPad you can see. Bear in mind there is no rear window!!

Love the post Roady, hope you recover from those gunshot wounds!
Thanks also Jeremy and Calum, it will be on the MSCC stand at the NEC Classic Show.
Brian
P.S. Stuart will come back to you later, as the MMC contingent have just arrived!

I have held back because I don't know what I think of it , its like looking at a beautiful woman with all the correct curves and shape . But I need to see her in the flesh to see if its my head or my heart that judges when it should be equal from both . I felt the same about the Aeromax when I first saw its photo and now love the shape it has grown on me from all angles some cars do not photo well . Cars have to grow on me the longer the growth the more the love and knowing myself I would be trying to alter things straight away , its just the way I am .

When I wrote her I meant SP1.  I will send you some tweezers they should help with your growth. Think I will purchase a Euro ticket as the sewer pipe has burst in the lane and I can not get the mog out of it due to a large hole they have dug .

There are many details that I like, especially the interior and finishing details. Also the rear axle with watts linkage, the 6 cylinder engine, make promises for the future for the many times discussed upgraded trad Morgan. This car can be the base for an upgraded range Morgans between the real trads and the aero's. As a whole, this SP1 is not my cup of tea, but I admire the guts of Aeroman and the Morgan crew to produce this one-off. I'm looking forward to see it in real flesh!

Brian I have said before how stunning this creation is. It's a fantastic collaboration between your dreams and the skills and craftsmanship of MMC. Every single person in the team who created this must be so proud to have been part of an inspiring project - and they got paid whilst getting immense job satisfaction! One thing is for sure - you don't need an alarm on it is like no other car on the road! It should have given those talented designers, engineers and crafstmen/women a big boost for the ideas department for future MMC development.

I’m still warming to the car but I LOVE the initiative and the guts to build it. One thing is for sure – the focus of the motoring world has been drawn to Pickersleigh Road. Great science combined with Great art, congratulations

Congratulations Brian!!
What a fantastic expression of themes and influences that are very personal to you. It has literally taken me 24hrs to absorb all of the photographs and video to figure out what I like best. Thank you Stuart, I appreciate your comments and am pleased that you like the car. I know of at least one styling detail that will be offered on a production car in the not too distant future. Though I'm afraid I ain't be specific without giving the game away. Regards Brian

I will start with the combined led rear lights
