What a great looking car.
Brilliant; thanks for posting.

Thanks for posting that one what a great looking car.
Morgan ahead of their time.

Excellent historical article which if published in Miscellany would make it a much more interesting read.

What a fantastic little car! Chris Booth's museum is a great place to visit. Looks like it's time to pay another visit to see his latest recreation.

Have never visited, really must make an effort...

Yes you must visit the museum.

You gain admittance through Falstaff Antiques and you'd hardly be surprised to learn, there is a part of the shop that sells Morgan items. Pretty good chance you'll buy something from there too!

The museum is not that big but it is very interesting, I visited when I was rebuilding my three wheeler to learn the little bits that Morgan did. A both useful and enjoyable day out.

I agree - this is a fine example of an article which would make Miscellany a lot more interesting.

I have just started reading 'Morgan Sports Cars - the early years' by Jake Anderson and Chris Chapman and in there they say HFS applied for a patent on the 4-wheeler in September 1914 which was granted on 13 May 1915 (Patent no. 19467) but the 4 wheeler project was quietly shelved when sales for the 3-wheeler took off.
I hadn't realised that the car had been recreated.
The museum sounds like a great destination for a day out.

Thanks for posting.

I've just found this link to the excellent museum site:

Confused that is the same link in the first post

Apologies for any confusion caused.
On my phone the link in the original post goes to the article on the 4 wheeler and the link I posted is to the museum home page. But you are right that it is the same site, just a diffent landing page.
Sorry for the duplication
