Book Description
New updated and revised edition! In the early years of the 21st century, the Morgan Motor Company decided to return to the configuration of its origins, with a new 3 Wheeler. One reason for this decision was that it could no longer sell its four-wheelers in the USA, due to the costs of meeting increasingly restrictive legislation on emissions and accident safety becoming prohibitive for a small manufacturer. The 3 Wheeler, classed as a motorcycle, bypasses these complex requirements. By coincidence, an American three-wheeler, the Liberty Ace (itself a modernised recreation of the V-Twin Morgan Super Sports of the 1930s) was selected as the starting point. Morgan then designed and engineered the new model in an astonishingly short period. The management thought it might sell a few hundred 3 Wheelers; however, orders flooded in after its launch at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, leading to considerable complications. This is the story of how all that happened and how an eccentric sports car with an American engine and a Japanese gearbox is, nevertheless, quintessentially English.

Book Description
Once upon a time, I watched an episode of Top Gear test three track-day cars. Richard Hammond turned up in a Morgan 3-Wheeler. I had never seen or heard of the 3-Wheeler before, but I immediately developed an intense need to have one. This book describes my journey.his book is not a set of plans to build your own 3-Wheeler. A set of plans would require you to follow my build exactly, make the same compromises I made, and want exactly what I came up with. This book is, instead, a documentation of the process I went through to build my own 3-Wheeler. I encountered many new problems to solve in building my 3-Wheeler and I hope an examination of how I solved those problems will help you with your project.

Book Description
For owners and would-be owners of three-wheeled Morgans, Ken Hill has created an invaluable ‘Bible’ which is absolutely packed with genuinely useful information. Ken sets the stage by detailing the history of the Morgan motor company, describes the marque’s motorsport record and then, with great thoroughness, chronicles the evolution of all three-wheeler models since 1910. Next comes practical advice on maintenance and repair – advice based on expert information produced when the three-wheelers were still in production. Part of the ‘Morgan experience’ is the extraordinary social scene that embraces the marque on a worldwide basis, so Ken devotes a whole chapter to Morgan clubs and their activities. The last part of the book is a series of appendices comprised of original specification, production changes, wiring diagrams, technical data sheets, details of specialists, distributors and manufacturers, details of Morgan miniature models and a record of factory sales literature. Altogether, this work is a unique source book of essential information for all Morgan three-wheeler owners and enthusiasts. The two other books in this series: Completely Morgan - Four-wheelers 1936-1968, and Completely Morgan – Four-wheelers 1968-1995, are also being reissued as part of Veloce’s Classic Reprint series.
