And if you're getting sidescreen bags, check with a local trimmer - I had two custom made up at £60 each. Most Morgan places want upwards of £180 per bag.

Am just in the process of putting a luggage space in my four seater. Steve at VSM pulled out the rear seat assembly for me, which I found had been rubbing on the diff since new. I'm just sourcing some nice veneer to place in the back and will put some runners on it to protect it after much varnishing. The aim is to make it perfect for european touring, should that ever happen again....

TBM ...when I need sidescreen bags I shall check with my wife and her trusty sewing machine smile

Plus4 ...that sounds very upmarket and beautiful .... although the two seater has a very neat rear end ...there's no denying the 4 seater does better for touring space ..... I think European touring will return reasonably soon ...at least I hope so.

True, I prefer the two seater's back end, but I'm planning on changing the roofline on mine as there'll be no rear passengers, so it'll be less "Ant Hill Mob" and have a lower profile all around....

Here's the template for the luggage shelf:

and here's the proposed roofline....

Interesting special..... Morgan supplied chassis/motor but bodied over a steel frame rather than ash by Radpanels who built Dellow trials cars

LOVE that. Let me know how you get on with it. The only difference I'd have is to the rear side windows - I'd make them part of the hood.
