Hi TM,
Last month I bought my first Morgan (a 2008 Plus 4) from Chipping Snobbery and today was the first opportunity I had to get it up on my neighbour's car lift.
The underneath was in remarkably good condition for a seven year old car although there are some minor areas that could do with some attention. In particular, the car had been re-waxoyled by Morgan Motor Company five years ago and apart from some obvious overspray they have appeared to have neglected the rear area of the car (i.e inside the rear wheel arches, behind the battery).
Does anyone know if there is any reason that this area should not be waxoyled or was it just an omission on behalf of MMC?
Welcome from Salisbury...
The New Forest MSCC group also cover east Dorset, about as far as Dorchester.
As to your question, inside the wings and behind the back axle are largely either aluminium or marine plywood. I'd guess that MMC don't think it worth coating ply with Waxoyl.
To be honest the only bits that need covering are the chassis side rails. Doing the inside of the alloy wings helps stop stone damage.
One point that is vital is applying ACF 50 to the join between wings and body. This is where steel and aluminium meet and needs to be kept oily, not wet!
Enjoy your Mog!
