The Mythical Wooden Chassis

There is a persistent myth (I've just removed a reference in the opening section of this article) to the "wooden chassis" that has never existed. I suspect the confusion may arise because of the wooden frame - as in the framework on which the body panels are hung - and the fact that in other contexts (and particularly in US English) "frame" can be a synonym for chassis. Of course, if anybody can provide a source for the claim that any Morgan has ever had a wooden chassis, I'll be delighted (and surprised) to be proven wrong).

Legal Name

In my distant youth I subscribed to Automobile Quarterly, and there was an article on "Malvern's Timeless Flyer" that said that the firm's legal name was "Prebendary H. G. Morgan doing business as the Morgan Motor Company" to which they remarked, "L'état, c'est moi!" I lent my automobile books and magazines to one who never returned them. There may be a file in some nearby library. J S Ayer (talk) 21:53, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

Adler

I've just added an image of an advert from 1912, for a four-wheeled car called the "Adler". Is his possibly an import, made by [[Adler (cars and motorcycle)]? The advert also mentions two London premises. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:55, 23 November 2021 (UTC)

That's another company, unrelated to Morgan from Malvern Link. See here. They built coaches, a.o. for the German Adler. The Morgan Motor Company was always only situated in Malvern Link.Mark in wiki (talk) 12:06, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
