Thank you all for the constructive comments welcome and appreciated,
I was positively amazed at the number of visits and reply as well as many compliments on my post got in so little time.
I did not expect really ...
The work is still incomplete and I needed to know what he could to please others.
I had already sent the pictures to Morgan that defined them very interesting.
I realized that the side like more or less everyone, so I think that once you've decided where to place the mirrors and give them the shape can be considered ok.
For the front I've read mixed reviews so I'll try to clean it up a bit 'to make it less conspicuous, but not today it tomorrow, here it snows a lot and maybe I can get something going to shovel a little' sidewalks ...
In the rear view of the car the thing that convinces me is less the hood even if I have something in mind to change the design.
Unfortunately I did not do desing schools of modeling clay to try to develop a prototype at least in scale 5:1.
What you see was developed in photoshop and not so good ...
I like the retro futuristic lines and even steampunk elements.
I hope to deliver the changes that would make everyone happy because you have been so kind to me.
Thank you again and to hear from you soon!!

PS - To achieve this, I fused together the lines of more than 18 cars and concept cars but no BMW

Hi GerryWal,
thanks for your comment and your suggestions.
Do not worry I was not offended, in fact I find it very interesting interventions like yours.
What I have developed is the car that my mind imagines when I look at the various models of Morgan.
The input is triggered while watching the sketches of the new EVA.
I do not know what you think, but I've noticed too many similarities with that of the grille of the latest Bugatti and Jaguar.
In addition, as I love the symmetry, I found slightly disproportionate length of the hood of the queue.
Of this convinces me even just the pointed shape of the boot probably dictated by the need to be more aerodynamic that.
I would like to know your thoughts on this to see what would be found in a future Morgan who already has one or more than one.
So what do you expect really a long-time client by Morgan on future models?
I ask this because for me the use of LED lights or too technological solutions tend to distort the soul of these cars especially in the desing, a bit 'as happened to the Rolls which now seem more cold and impersonal since are passed to the BMW ... but that's just my opinion.

Thanks again

Hi David,
I thank you for the kind words that you addressed to me.
I hope one day I can drive a Morgan to understand what it really means to own a car built by hand as before and maybe pay in Lira when things here that we were better before the arrival of the euro.
Unfortunately we enjoy a very controversial ruling class that is leading our country to a premature decline and if this continues I know that many of our reality will make the end of the TVR.
However, nowadays the only Morgan that maybe I could afford is this:

The color scheme of your Morgan I really like ... Congratulations!

See you soon

Thank you for your reply Wirewheel,
But I'd be curious to know also what you do not like my car, and why, so that we can improve ...

Hello NeilM,
thanks for your appreciation, I agree with you that bring some new ideas in automotive desing is positive as long as you do not go beyond certain limits.
The problem is not just trample on the tastes of the fans but know how to interpret and lead to new ways to discount the vehicles without distorting.
What not easy ....

I like the art deco influence of the front. Reminds me of a coachbuilt Delahaye from the thirties, but I can't find a picture of the one in my head. The 175 I believe.......

Turns out to be 1949. Ah well.

Hello Lightsphere,
I'm glad you like my Aero Coupe I too very important to keep the DNA of a brand though often imposes major limitations to the creativity of desinger.
The grille Morgan and very close to that of the Bugatti, Bugatti then let go his way and let's keep close "our".
The way I see it, every car should have a unique tailor-made for its user, so as to be revaluated after purchase and not the other.
The owner would also be obliged to keep it and ride it with greater responsibility.
Here we are so many companies that produce emblazoned supercar but we do not have ways to exploit them as they should.
So what do I do with a car like this ... much better to have a car with lower performance, but the seductive line or funny, but mostly built to last ...
Also if you push it to three hundred per hour to admire those who can no longer ... I might as well go to the track, but as we know the track is not made ​​for cars stylish but spartan cars and bad.

Hello DaveW,

Hello 4/4sportsfun,
Thank you for your reply. I hope to soon find a job but here is rather hard and luckily I live in Veneto, which until a few years ago produced by only as much as the GDP of the whole of Greece ....
Today is unrecognizable! Never seen a situation like this ... and I never expected to see her one day. In a little 'a revolution broke out, I mean it! People are exasperated and comes from someone who does not impress easily. Let's see how the next election will end but it will be good to put your hands back and consider the worst case scenario ...
Anyway I hope to hear from you again and that everything is completed for the better, I hope many beautiful things to you.

See you soon

Hi Simon,
I agree with every word of your reply which I find very constructive, to the point that I was wondering what was your business ...
Are you a chief designer?
You give me the impression of a very sailed in the automotive ...
However, there are still a few things to review nell'Aero Coupe that I have developed so far are more your actions.

Thanks

Theo69
