Morgan steamer

<HTML>Dear Friends,
While browsing through your web site, I came upon the Morgan 3-wheel steamer. Can anyone tell me anything about this car? Did Morgan itself make some steam-powered cars, or was this a later modification?
Thank you,
Cayton Allen</HTML>

<HTML>Hi Cayton,
The steam car in the picture was taken at a show here in England, it is the result of many years work by Bill Knutsford from Cheshire. It is reported to steam very well, I am not sure whether he used any parts from a Morgan, as far as I know it is only the case that the car has taken on the shape of a Morgan, <> Regards, Jeff Theobald.</HTML>
