I have reached the point in life where the matter of purchasing an M3W is eminently feasible; especially in view of the engaging nature of the M3W, and my thirst for its uniqueness. However, I(nor, I suspect, many of us here)have not arrived at this point by being profligate with our monies, or foolish with our investments.
I nearly purchased Pete Larsen's #13, and now regret not having done so in favor of the Morgan. I had been hoping, since the earliest production days, that the issues would be properly addressed, and have been disappointed to the present in the status of the machine. I would add that I am an ex- +8 owner, and the needle is deeply encroached in my Morganist's vein, enough to have made me fly myself to Santa Fe in order to catch a glimpse of CM and his bride during the Gumball run.
Now recently retired, I am fully enjoying shop activities that include building of experimental aircraft; basic lathe, welding, and sheet metal work with the assistance of an excellent mentor. I have decided to adopt a project that, albeit conceptual, may yield a vehicle that can be as stunning and radical as the M3W, at a fraction of the cost, and without the issues of steering, drive train, and bevel box problems that have so bedeviled an otherwise brilliant
concept.
The project is based on an early "3" Super Sports, and I am taking the liberty of including some enclosures.
I do feel that the parent Morgan company will redress the problems, and bring an improved version to its following in the foreseeable future.
Regards,
TN
