Happy birthday 4/4
Hello Heinz,
the roof is up for you now!
Unfortunately, my tablet reduced from 3 MB to 127 KB...
But I guess, you get the idea....
I personally love it so much.
There are so many great cars out there, but I think, I found the perfect fit...
Cheers!

Hello Steward!
The green is called Leaf-green, it's RAL 6002.
The leather is Yarwood-Imperial and the wheels are RAL 3005 called Weinrot in German
(Burgundy-Red?)
The paint-shop-guy went through some trouble, finding the right color-tone to match the
interior and the roof!
But I'd say, he did a nice job.

Well done for being brave from me too. I particularly like the red painted wheels.

The body looks amazingly glossy
I'm guessing there is a clear coat over the leaf green -anything special after that ?

That combination has a lovely prewar ambience to it. It makes the Morgan look older in a classic way.

It's why I've always been a fan of painted wires on Mogs; they have a much more "vintage" look. Chrome wires were introduced in maybe the 50s.
The painted wires are (IMHO) much more in keeping with the Morgan's 1930s origins than shiny silver ones.

Hi Steward! The paint on the pics is not upgraded in any way: this is the way, the car came out of the Malvern halls. The wheel paint is an 'aftermarket' job done in Germany. I couldn't agree more with you all. Together with the narrow body, the Brooklands wheel and this two-tone paint, the car has a great vintage look to it. But why does everybody over here ask me, if this was a Bugatti???

Your lucky.
When I owned a Mercedes Brilliant Silver +4 I was constantly asked if it was an Aston Martin...
