Here is the bonnet. I still have to hand sand around the louvers to finish up. The wings cleaned up nicely and I suspect at least one of them is new. One has a headlamp hole in it but the other does not. The photos I have that were taken prior to disassembly show the lights mounted on the front cross member.
The Begining This car was bought, some years ago, from Gullwing Motors in New York. It was an older restoration at that time, as far as I can ascertain. The car was found in a barn in north Florida ten or more years ago and went through two avid Morgan owners, being dismantled by the second one and then passed on to me. Much work had been done including a new chassis as well as quite a collection of new parts. Here is what I bought.

BODY WORK 3
With more stripping, sand blasting and sanding I'm making progress with the body work. Today I cut out the worst of the sheetmetal along the lower left side of the barrel back. This side must have been outside the shed roof when the car was taken off the road and stored. The right side looks fine. Photo 2 shows the removed piece.
