Our new Morgan is nearly ready...
Our new Morgan is nearly ready, just a bit of final work on the JAP engine. The body is in polished aluminium.

Looks great
I know exactly where that same replica JAP engine shape could fill a gap ! Initially I asked them to fit an electric motor, but it was so quick I asked them to remove it. It could have been the first electric 3W...

It's for our Grandson who is not quite two years-old. So a few years to go before he's big enough to use it!  And there's me thinking that you'd bought SP1 for your Grandson!

A great gift for the nipper Aeroman - but should it not have a bubinga dash?
My grandson is 3 in Sept and I am making him a 1/3 scale model of my 4/4 - like you I wondered about an elecrtic motor - but decided that kids do not (on the whole) get enough exercise these days - so if he wants to move - he has to work for it.
I am attaching a bracket front and rear so before he can steer we can pull him along, when he can steer but not pedal we can push him along then when big enough he`s on his own.
Has a r.angle steel ladder chassis a fibreglass body and a sort of plywood frame for strength where needed.

Looks brilliant Brian.
Slightly off topic; do the factory build the lovely scale Morgans that feature at the Little Le Mans, at LMC?

""Slightly off topic; do the factory build the lovely scale Morgans that feature at the Little Le Mans, at LMC? "" Here is the link with the discussion on the childs Morgan 4/4 initially on facebook (difers from last post it's another producer). The last post on the thread tells you the producer, but it's not the MMC factory. http://www.talkmorgan.com/ubbthreads.php/topics/228166/1
