For what little more it costs, I'm very surprised more people don't order the bright front wheel package. I've seen quite a few bright polished motors and full bright headlight shells, but I believe only one other on the TM forum has them, a gorgeous metallic red M3W. His name slips my mind at the moment, but to be honest, at my age many things are slipping through my mind to never be found again...
Very nice color choice and use of the pleated, not diamond leather. I like the Aussie optioned taller padded roll over bars.
Great total package you can show off for many years!

Thanks Dan!
The chrome wheels are not available from Morgan, for reasons that I'm sure are obvious to someone in Malvern. I ordered a set from MWS with Blockleys, shipped quickly to the US at a very reasonable price. So now I have a spare set of black wheels and tires to store in the barn... silly.
I was going back and forth on the tall hoops, but with the taller Fairborne screen, I do like the look. Interestingly, the pads for the hoops are the same regardless of the quilted or standard seating, so standard seems more appropriate as the quilted would not have matched.

You beat me to it I was going to say the chrome wheels are definitely not on the Morgan option list!

So with all of the conversations about 19" tires and the lack of a wide variety of tire options in 19", did you go with 19" or drop down to 18" for the possibility of more tire options? Did you work with Isabella on the wheels from MWS? She is a great person to deal with. I think at around $1k US shipped and tires mounted, that's not too bad. That's with a good exchange rate. Either way, I love the color and the wheels/bright work.

Either way, I love the color and the wheels/bright work. Yes, they were great to work with. I stayed with the 19's, and had Blockley's mounted. Ordered the 2-eared spinners from them also. Shipping was quite reasonable, and quick. Interestingly, they have to nitrogen-fill to ship the wheels with tires mounted...
