Interesting to see they have stainless steel floors. Is that common across all the range now, and how long have they been fitted?

An update.....the engines are now in two of the chassis and the rear suspension mounts are being fitted. Interesting. So, unlike the Suplex 5 link rear these will not be interchangeable (i.e. no reversion to leaf springs and take 5 link to your next Morgan?) How will the new suspension fit to the axle - I presume a modified rear axle? Is the supplier doing that, or MMC?

Brackets welded in place I believe Graham, I hope they have it right very easy to get the axle off centre and askew. It only needs to be a few degrees to make it horrible.

Looks good. Left hand drive? I thought the floors where aluminium? Will MMC repainted any parts of the chassis chipped during construction?

The brackets are welded in a jig so there is no reason why they should be out of place. The floors certainly appear to be alloy rather than stainless steel....I'll check on Monday. The normal range of Trads continue to have marine ply floors.
