Machinery 1937 Morgan Barrel Back Three Wheeler

1937 Morgan Barrel Back Three Wheeler · **9 Likes**

This afternoon, I went to a local "AutoFest" put on by a local outfit called Nfinity Racers. It was a bigger show than I expected, but it was composed mostly of tricked-up late model Mustangs, Camaros, Subarus and the like - lots of good work that I'm too old to appreciate.

There were no Porsches (

), but the show included a few exotics and '60s era muscle cars. For me, however, the star of the show was this 1937 Morgan Barrel Back - totally original. The car was inside in a low-light area, so I was pushing my gear a bit and did the best I could. I'd have been better served with my faster FA 31.

Challenging circumstances. Challenge met with the K-1 and the photographer's skill, a winning combination. Well done!

I think you're right - and they'd be fun to drive too.

Hi Jer

Yes fun with a capital F

The Smart car and its ilk look like mobile coffins.

Superb capture, Jer, as others have said you managed the K-1 with the skill of a craftsman.....well done, My Friend! Looks like the owner put a lot of loving care into that vehicle, every detail looks perfect!

I really appreciated the kind words, Larry.

The owner told me he bought the car while in Europe - it was complete but many of the parts were in boxes. After the car was shipped to the States, he meticulously reassembled and refurbished it. As I mentioned above, this car is totally original.
