Why not a "Blog". I have thought of starting and maintaining a "Blog" called "According to Button". I would just write what I think I know with pictures etc. on any subject, model, year I chose. So Mr. W could do the same only it would be titiled "According to Mr. "W". In fact Mr. "W" could write a rebuttle or even embelish on Mr. Button's words if He chose. I read Mr. "W's" book but as a US'er I do not have much experience with the later models. What I do know I get from "Talk Morgan". However I have a lot of experience with the 1960's +4. Also I have developed a lot of unconventional remedies for many problems I have encountered over the years and ones I have learned from the Northern California Hotrodders as some call them. I have tried to learn from "GOMOG" and wonder just how much effort it takes to do this. I almost always have to Email Lorne to find the information I want on GOMOG. Not sure I want to be "on call" like Lorne is. Also "Legal Liability". I have assets. I don't want to loose them.

Its always one thing that I believe is missing about Morgan Ownership, a Haynes Manual. I know things have changed recently with a lot of the electric gizmo. But I know that my rebuild would go a lot smoother with a Haynes. I know a book was published in the late 60/early 1970s, but the standard of it today is shocking. On Talk Morgan I did download a manual that a member issued reference a 1973 MOG which he rebuilt over a number of years which has greatly helped. And of course Talk Morgan/GOMOG are great but the downside to those is you can't just open them to see how you strip down kingpins, removing wings, cowl etc in the workshop like a book!

It sounds to me like you have just talked yourself into the job as you are actually in the process right now wink .

Looking forward to a second book, Dave. I greatly enjoyed your informative book, which I recently downloaded onto my Kindle via Amazon and posted a favourable review ( kickbacks from your royalties gladly accepted).
