Morgan, Malvern, England. The Morgan Super Aero was a motor cycle engines three wheeler that was a cheap fast car in the twenties. The exposed motor cycle engine was ahead of the of the front axle and powered the single rear wheel. As well as good performance they benefitted from being taxed like a motor cycle. They can be powered by various 2 cylinder engines including JAP, Blackburne, Anzani and Harley Davidson. They had a two speed gearbox. The Super Aero had a tubular steel chassis and lowered streamlined bodywork. In the twenties ad thirties they were regularly used in trials, hillclimbs and on racetracks such as Brooklands and Donington Park. This tradition continues. Sue Darbyshire has been competing successfully with this car for around 15 years which has a 1.2 litre engine.
