Just a short series from my Leica C of a friend's new car in build:

Chassis shop - a new car begins

Your friend is very lucky! When will it be finished? He's probably been waiting quite a while for that!

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

Thanks James.

He is visiting the factory today (28th Feb).

It's his first Morgan. He is very excited.

Sadly not as nice today (at least in S London) as it was yesterday to be picking up a Morgan, but I'm very envious! You need to post a photo of the end result too!

A very nice set.  It appears they are using far less wood than in former times.

Pretty much the same amount of Ash Stuart.

He's not collecting the car until mid-March, from one of the dealers James. 

I do have a further photo of the car in Final Assembly. But won't have the time to upload until next week. Unfortunately, I doubt I'll be at the factory to get a photo of the fully finished car (unless all is ready this morning). It still has to go through test, PDI and then have the underseal added, so probably not finished until early next week.

Thanks all for the comments.

In view of the forthcoming photo stoppage, thought I'd better link the last couple.

Here the car is in final assembly (all the fiddly bits + wings refitted etc.):

And here is the completed car (still needs a couple of the lights connecting, but you can't see that!):

Meanwhile I'm enjoying a weekend with friends in Ludlow - guess I'll be keeping those photos to myself!

Cheers,

Lovely
