I'm glad Richard,
especially if I am told by a naval architect .... I would not be too intrusive but I'd like to see some of your work if possible ... you have to understand tastes.
By the way there are job opportunities that you can point out to me in Perth? Because here in a while 'is starving .... pale

Sadly all of my work is related to oil rigs and supporting vessels so let's call what I do functional!

What's your background?

thumbs +1, not so sure about the full view side exhaust, think i would prefer just 2 x side exits like the SS but oblong like Jaguar rather than round !!

Thanks for the +1 Dean-Royal,
in fact the discharge may seem a bit 'tacky so massive...
It seems more suited to a muscle car than a Morgan... obviously I have a little 'too much... always depends on what engine is under the hood... if it is an 8-cylinder there may also be... wink

Its a great side profile Theo but yes, I agree about the side exhaust. A top of the range Morgan needs to be a bit subtle...in a gentlemanly sort of way!

The more I look, the more I realize that the discharge is to be reviewed ... you're absolutely right Jays need something more elegant for a car of high class, but I would not make it look like too much of a Bentley or Mercedes ...
I have to invent something different ....

Lots of points for style but not so many for practicality. For example, if you scale the car with say 55cm wheels then the driver's eyeline is level with the bonnet giving about 5cm height of w/screen to look out of and view of the road 2-300metres away. Take away the side pipes and put in a turbo 2litre with central rear exhaust. How many w/screen wipers? (it has to be 3!) and it will also have to appeal to our two-tone officionados.
I can see more drawings coming on - good work cheers
