Finished custom hardtop on MOG414

Thanks all for your appreciating my effort.
I have done some other mods for my Miss Marple and I intend to share them on this forum. I will collect the various step-by-step images I took during build and create a gallery for each of the projects, hoping to inspire other Morgan owners to venture forward and do their own 'projects'. The Morgan is, in my opinion a very good base for doing subtle custom mods without drastically tearing it apart. This has the benefit of always being able to 'restore' it back to it's standard format. All the mods I have done did not require any new holes drilled into it for mounting etc.

Hope you will enjoy my little contribution.

regards to all

When I looked at the first picture I suddly had to think about old RR. Elegance and classic!

Hi all, I have uploaded images showing the sequence of building the plug on TM Image Library, on link below :

Yes it works Reno, great workmanship there

Thanks for sharing your work Reno, that is the work of a great craftsman you should feel proud.

Thanks for posting these interesting pictures of your build. It looks like a well planned and executed piece of work 👍
I guess you could take a female mould off your original and produce perfect copies now?
Business opportunity looming perhaps?

Hi Gordon, to produce my hardtop you see on Ms Marple, I have already fabricated the female mould. Actually I did get quite a few enquiries but the problem is that Morgan changed dimensions of the 4/4 'cockpit' along the years. On a 4/4 of say years 1980 to 1990, fit might be possible. (mine is a 1986 model) The other problem is that I am based in Malta and there are only a handful of Morgans here. Also, it does require a 'hands-on person to fit properly...but if say an opportunity arises I will definitely consider it, maybe even sell the mould/design.
