Thanks for the photo . I have just took a copy and going to laminate it . Sick to death of the Morgan know all who comes over at the shows and tells me it has a wood chassis . Even if I point to the chassis . Now must do the same and find a good photo of a frame .

I was told the lowering blocks are a factory standard from about 2014/15 onwards

My car is 2016 so probably a standard fit at the time.

Just play along with them. It can pass time quite nicely until you hit him with the facts and watch the expression.


Here for a good time not a long time!!

If I have a small'ish tour group, I ask how many have heard of the "famous wood chassis" - usually just before we enter the chassis shop.
Nice to show them the real, steel, thing! grin2

Graham,
can't you show them the painted steel & say it is the creosote on the wood?

GoMog has a page on lowering blocks
