Panelled Bodywork

This set of photos shows the standard of aluminium panelling done in our workshops. Complete panelled chassis are available now as a "starter" kit.


This picture shows in general the top deck with removable centre panel, below which is the electrics box. Note the edge trim and one piece aluminium floor.

Left side centre tunnel panel permanently fixed, except around lower seat belt panel which can be removed for inspection at MSVA test. The electrics box can be seen.

Rear end of a beetle-back chassis. The rear most outer panel is one piece curved (not yet fitted). The rear wheel is totally boxed in, but you can see detachable front panels and a detachable top to the sloping box. The frame above is the upper seat belt mounting frame to comply with UK MSVA regs.

This view shows interior of the rear wheel compartment prior to fitting the curved outer panel.
By comparison, here is the rear of the barrel-back chassis. Note forward baggage compartment and inspection hatch removed. The curved rear panel to which the spare wheel attaches, is a one piece 5mm thick aluminium panel which can be polished. The rear most sealed compartment is currently unused, but we are developing a shaped fuel tank to fit in each side.

A clear view of the 5mm thick rear panel which replaces the plywood panel (which would need to be covered in aluminium anyway) Note the sloping frame to take the spare wheel to which we riv-nut the rear lighting board.

Top view of rear wheel box. Note the detachable top panel and the removed side panel enabling inspection of the swing arm pivot points etc.

Forward view of a barrel-back chassis. Note battery tray, lower foreground, missing electrics box in top deck, riv-nutted triangular panels to which the nose cone is attached. You'l be surprised at how many times you'll be removing the nose cone!

RH side of the  barrel-back rear showing compartment and inspection panel door.

Top of rear cover area. This area is totally useable for baggage, etc.

General view of RH side of a chassis. Note detachable tunnel side panel, multi riv-nut attachment points for P-clips for electrics/fuel/brake lines. Raised plinth is for a reversing gearbox. All chassis can be retro-fitted with reversing gearboxes.

Top deck showing pedal box area, electrics box (top removed) and 6mm socket button located (into  flush riv-nuts) edge trim.

Top deck looking rearwards. Note plinth to which the steering column is bolted. Riv-nuts in horizontal dash board bar are to take P-clips to locate the wiring loom.

This is a polished rear lighting panel fitted to a barrel-back chassis. This puts the rear lights at the correct MSVA regs height.

The alternative scuttle, the Aero Scuttle, permits a different style of dashboard. here is an engine turned/circle polished version for Moto Guzzi instruments. Note the large cut-out which takes a hinged drop down glove box door, also circle polished, yet to be fitted. This scuttle and dashboard is an option.

Beetle-back rear cover.

Rear cover shown with plywood bulkhead.

The detachable louvred panel (behind which is the battery tray) has been polished.

Polished louvred panel.

Left hand louvred panel from behind. Note the 038 size battery tray.

Beetle-back rear panel. Note alternative cleko pins and rivets at this stage. The full length adjacent panels are louvred in "Morgan" style and are joggled to overlap this panel.

Fully riveted rear panel.

Front louvred panel now joggled so it fits over the main side panel and can be detached. It is fixed using flush riv-nuts.

Rear 8 inch louvres now give the rear bodywork a distinctive "Morgan look". Note the joggled edge.
