ON 6134 was originally a Morgan Family. Roger Edmunds utilised many chassis parts from the dilapidated original to construct an Aero.

Duncan Wood of Fairbourne Carriages Ltd rebuilt the engine with all new internals, these include a competition crank and rods, piston assemblies (+ .0010), valve assemblies, guides, rocker needle bearings, half time pinion and cams. The unit is total-loss and is running on castor based oil. A lubrication system for the valve guides is fitted and operated by a Best & Lloyd pump from the dash. The ML magneto was totally rebuilt by Dave Lindsay. The carb is an AMAL Monoblock which is not period correct but is jetted appropriately (D. Wood).
