Taking the Autocar prototype picture of the "3/3", can we surmise the following. An aluminium CX chassis with enclosed water cooled engine and a contemporary Morgan nose. All wheel disc brakes, wider wheels and hopefully unequal length wishbone front suspension. Engine- the Ford Fox 1.0 ecoboost would be a good guess because of size and weight. This engine comes as an atmospheric- non turbo version with 65 or 80 hp. The 80 would be a logical choice for this application. The turbo version weighs 213 lbs so the non turbo version should come in under 200 lbs. I could not find a longitudinal application of this engine so the transmission choice is unknown ,perhaps the MX-5 again. Do we want a proper windscreen? Do we want open Harley Davidson type aluminium front wheels? Do we want an exposed rear wheel?
This forum may be our only voice to be heard by the planners at Morgan.
