Talk Morgan Forums Thread Like Summary - I see a red door and I want it painted black

Or in this case, a red car......

Lots of rust patches coming through the wings, and it's a bit of a bugger having to colour match every time I do some work, so I thought it time to get the rattle cans out and spray her a proper colour. Just the wings to begin with, but will eventually do the whole car. She'll then match my Harley, my ZX, my MG, my clothes and my personality.

Mines your long lost 65 Plus4 Four Seater

All done (bar a tiny bit on the otherside!)

Very happy with the 'RatMog' look. Will need a bit of fettling but has the desired effect. Cost about £150 in paint, brown paper and masking tape.

Proper colour! ... I believe mine went 2-tone with black wings as the previous owner competed it and found that facilitated the inevitable minor repairs compared to the red.

If you look in the top right corner of the site, you will see a red and black Roadster - that was my car, ordered new by me in those two-tone colours.

I loved it and, to my eyes, it looked superb.

Loving the look of yours and it brought back great memories.

TBM, I quite like the red n black two tone you now have, it enhances the classic shape of a narrow body Mog better than all black

IIRC, someone's had a new CX in red & black, spotted in France

It is and it gives the car a bit of a rat-rod look - I actually really like that style.

For reference, here is a link to the Black and Red one I mentioned.

- that looks like a great finish for rattle cans TBM ; well done!

Another vote for the red and black scheme.......!
It really suits the shape of the car and.... it looks more retro somehow....🤷🏻‍♂️

Edwin .... a man after my own heart! .... totally biassed but to my mind red/black is the best two-tone! 😁

Those hubcaps are looking a bit shiny. Got anything left in the rattle can?

Good result.
