Subject: Morgan AND Morgan Replics
In 1968 I owned a 1952 F Type, which was the best word to describe it!!!!.To be fair it had been badly abused by ist former owner. NPO 447 is it still alive? I am now going to hand build a replica(not kit)Guzzi engine. Not ideal but better than nothing. All help much appreciated.

The closest replica I have seen on the Internet appears to be the Jeluli that Lito Luciani is building in Buenos Aires. Has anyone seen one in person? What do any of you know about it? I want to build or buy an authentic replica of a Morgan Super Sports (1933?) but am in real need of educated opinions/guidance. Got any? Please share. Thank you, Richard Zempel, St. Louis, MO USA

Subject: newcomer with BRA
Hi My name is Foxy and I live in North Wales. I own a BRA CV3 that was built from plans by an idiot who couldn't cut straight lines and used chipboard instead of ply!! Still it was cheap and I had loads of fun in it and it was relaiable. It died a death 4 years ago but I'm going to rebuild it over the winter to have it ready for next year (new chassis, new body panels etc). Thought it might be fun to say hi to other Morgan replica nuts and if I can get a lead for the camera I'll send pics of the rebuild and musings etc. Happy motoring. David Fox (usually known as Foxy)

Spent Saturday afternoon turning laps in the parking lot. We found a few nuts that needed replacing with nyloks, but it was mostly sweet (but loud! Still running just the headpipes. We got the first sidepipe welded up this evening.)
With Gerhard's permission, I'll throw up a few pictures of the mechanicals next week, explaining how it all works.

B.R.A. CV3
This B.R.A CV3 Morgan inspired classic three wheel roadster is not a replica, but a modern interpretion of the famous 1930,s trike. The CV3 has all the looks , style and sounds of the past, but with the benefit of the complete 2CV steering gear, well proven mechanics and legendery suspention.
The 602cc flat twin air cooled engine is adequate to give sports car performance at 50 m.p.g. The power unit being combined with a well proven gearbox and inboard disc brakes together with front wheel drive, allowing excellent handling and postive rack and pinion steering, and large cockpit.

In scanning the Morgan Forum messages, there appears to be a large number of people who are looking for parts for old Morgans. I would like to let everybody know that we are currently manufacturing a three-wheeler kit, the TriVette Two. All the details are on our website, www.vigillante.com. The TriVette Two is a 1200 pound vehicle powered by a Honda Civic drivetrain. Very fast and super mileage. The kits sell for $12,500 (US) and include everything you need, except the parts that come from a donor Honda Civic.
Check it out.

F-type replica
After 3 years of hard work, I finally have my F-type replica on the road. It is built closely to the original (frame, wooden body structure, alum. body etc...) with some exception (suzuki V4 motorcycle engine, spitfire front suspension). I took great care of being fatefull to the original's dimensions. It runs like a dream and is very fast. If anyone is interested in seing good photographs, E-mail me at multimages@videotron.ca.
