After months of waiting (I know that’s nothing compared to the old days) but I went again to the factory today to see my car in build and it is nearly there. Just a few more days and will be heading to Williams for a few final tweaks and will be all mine!!! Cannot wait and looking forward to engaging properly with the wider mog community! ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2022/10/25/92B79A09-6EC8-41AC-BEB6-572B530EFB11.md.jpg)

Looks brilliant! Alligator green 🐊? Excited to see more of your specification. Love the tan combo with the paint. The first Morgan I drove was a London tester very similar to this and it was the deciding factor for my own purchase. Enjoy the anticipation until collection and best wishes for a glorious first drive (and many more after that)!

I concur - that looks great and such a classic combination, yet with a contemporary twist with the bolder tan colour. One of my favourite greens for a Morgan too. It must be so exciting to see it in the factory so close to completion; has it made the wait any harder now? I couldn’t stop looking for any and every photo I could to see if I could spot mine in the background when I knew it was in build. That was hard enough!

Spencer, the wider spec is … alligator green manual with deep tan leather, green stitching and silver alloys. As you know the pics from your test drive of the London loan car were instrumental in me confirming the colour choice. I also have a passion for the 1958/9 DBR1s and it’s a very similar colour.
Matt, thanks for the nice comments - was aiming at exactly that - a beautiful classic car with a contemporary twist. Hence the alloys too, although was also concerned I wouldn’t have the patience to keep wire wheels clean!
Williams will be adding PPF and a wooden Mota-Lita wheel plus a couple of other small tweaks and rear rack. Will post some proper photos once I have the end product in another couple of weeks.

I too was at the factory on the 25th, mines a bit behind yours, but it won't be long now.  The engine was going in on mine...it's a bit crazy to see your car like this! ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/jZyYlks.jpg) ...and now it's in! ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/dTy0a1Y.jpg)

Good news Jim. What’s the spec? Look forward to comparing notes afterwards

It's Metallic Emerald Green with Biscuit leather, black wire wheels, with a Mota Lita walnut wheel to go along with the walnut dash. Automatic. I've been looking up at how to keep the wheels clean in winter....

Nice. I looked at something similar to start with but the decided to go with alligator green instead and modified the rest from there. Also including a walnut Motalita wheel too. Spencer (DalesPlusFour) went the other way but to Porsche Oak Green and brown leather and a black leather motalita. So many variants in just a narrow range (ignoring all of the myriad of other options). Would be nice to see them all together in a row!  ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2022/10/28/F4D0B0C8-190C-4506-9D3C-8585AB9FB78A.jpg)

I had a hire car for the weekend with the Alligator green, and was sorely tempted by it. But as you say, it all horses for courses! The car looks great!!!!!!!
The Oak Green is darker than mine, and yours is lighter...would indeed be something to see them all together!

That sounds like something to organise at some point
