  Turns out that quite a few 4 wheeler types are also Three-Wheeler types
(like me, Bert Varady, John H. Sheally  II, and many others).  My four
cylinder Ford engined Three-Wheeler just won its first trophy (the sponsor's
trophy at the Truth or Consequences, NM  Veterans Day Car Show) after a
respray.  John's Three-Wheeler, which he drove from the Atlantic to the
Pacific a few years ago, is powered by a water cooled V-twin Matchless while
Bert's machine which is nearing competition after a full restoration is an
air cooled Matchless.
  There were many engines used to power Morgan  Three-Wheelers including
Ford, Matchless, Blackburn, and the J.A.P.'s  mentioned by John Blair.  A
surprising number of these cars are still around and many are still racing.
  Want to learn more about buying, owning, restoring, driving, or racing a
Three-Wheeler?  Try a subscription to NORTH AMERICAN TRIKE!  Only $10 US for
domestic subscriptions ($12 US for Canada and Mexico, $15 US for Europe) for
this quarterly newsletter edited and published by the undersigned.
