The Morgan Motor Company located in Britain doesn’t change in a changing world. Not only is it still independent, but it also makes each car by hand.

A base model is about $44,000, with some cars costing up to $300,000. People wait for over a year to get their exclusive hand-built cars with the shell made out of metal and much of the vehicle made out of wood.

Working on the wood interior, workers use metal shears to individually shape a hood because each car has to be different.

Every year Morgan produces about 600 cars.

The company will celebrate its 100th anniversary in 2011.

It has a long and interesting history, and is still run by the same
family: the Morgans.Founded by Henry Frederick Stanley Morgan known as “HFS”, it was then run by his son Peter, and is now run by Charles, the son of Peter Morgan.

If you think four wheels are too many and two wheels not enough, you could always try three.

Dave you should have been at the Euro Auto Fest in Greenville SC in 2009. The morgan was the featured car that year and we were treated to over 100 examples. They had one of the three wheelers displayed in the awards area. We drove in the ralley and there were morgans every where. They are certainly beautiful with an outstandind attention to detail. You could see the evolution of this great car line right in front of you. It was a week end to remember. We had 9 Crossfires in a class and some of the comments were priceless. My favorite was a man telling his son the Crossfires were Buicks and shouldn't be here. We spent the day educating the crowd. A lot of great comments also.
