Abe,

Can't help you with experience on the Morspeed hood although I hear he makes quality stuff and the fits are very good. I can offer you an alternative that I have dealt with, Dave Craddock at Preform (vendor on this forum I think). I'm using his fenders and deck lid (already had a hood) and the parts are very nice and fit well with a limited amount of fuss. Worth checking out.

Abe,

You might just want to contact Rodger Grantham in Springfield, MO - & listed on the Brit V8 roster.

Rodger is creating a new MG Rover RV8 bonnet for my SCCA GT2 car - a MG Rover RV8. The same bonnet might fit and work well on your MG restoration.

Good luck with your project.

keep them on the track,

phillip g

Thanks all for the help.... Made a deal with Pete Mantell he is the one doing my V8 upgrade, real super guy to work with. Highly recommend him.

"Rodger is creating a new MG Rover RV8 bonnet "

Phillip,

Would you have any sneak previews of that new bonnet?

Abe, I have an extra one. Contact me at 937 859 7881 at my shop, here or email me. If you are interested I will send you an email address. I'm new here and a bit skittish about quoting prices in this forum.

How do you guys get "Morspeed" to answer his emails? I've tried to contact him about four times with no luck. Is he even still in business?
