Great Day At The Morgan Factory.

Just to say,

What a fantastic day me and the missus had at the Morgan Factory to-day.

Also meeting up with (The Gaffer)   ;D   and a few of the clubs members. Im pretty sure they had a great day also.   8)
To see how them cars are hand built was something.  I didnt think for one instance that so much hand work and shaping was done, and to see the ash wooden frames completed from pre hand formed timbers was facinating.   Not a welder nor grinder to be seen.  :o

I have lots of pictures and when possible will post some on the forum for all to see.

All I can add is to those that missed it, you will have to arrange for another time.  It is well worth it to see these cars and how they are put together by the family of happy workers.

Thanks to those who arranged it, it was a very enjoyable day out.   Many Thanks...  Denzle.   :)

Yep, was a great day and nice to catch up with some of you. Thanks to  Andrew (WSCC) for the invite

Amazing that you can make a car out of wood and aluminium, some very skilled friendly craftsmen there.

Certainly was :D. Good to meet some more of the club members.

BIG thanks to Peter (Casino) for sorting out the day and also for the lift in his Royale, very understimated car :)

How do I get your pics up John. ?

All I`ve got is little white squares with red crosses in them.   ::)

The history of the factory was beyond belief,  to see traditional metal working in action was a sight to behold, well worth the trip and very freindly staff were more than willing to explain their tasks in producing a series of very nice cars.

Great day out

Well done to all who arranged and turned up. :D

Dixie and myself checked out the works canteen......massive breakfast, couldn't eat it all! (Had to leave 2 of the sausages!!)

Even Santa would have struggled to eat 2 of them. ;D ;D

Great day out. ;)

Casino

Hey  paintman.    Not one mention of "Morgan"  or  "car" in your posting.          You only mention food !

Great Day.  Well supported by members who hopefully enjoyed the visit, not forgetting Mr Tone (Tony) who was wearing his Westfield hat.

Like the pics, YellaBelly and thanks for your company.
