    Fantastic!!! I was out working on my 1928 Morgan replica that I am building from scratch and just came in and am enjoying watching you build your projects. I have to start video-ing my build. I am starting with an opposed twin airplane motor, mating it to an MGB transmission and then to a rear drive wheel from a Honda Goldwing. I love the look of the air cooled engine in the front. Keep up the great work my friend. I am across the pond in PA...

      @@FlyingForFunTrecanair Oh really. I read somewhere that it was from a Tiger Moth. Thank you for the information because I had no idea how that could have ever come to be. I plan on using the flat twin and a turbocharger. I truly believe that look would be much more like the aeroplane look that was originally the idea.what do you think?
