Canyon Carving In Morgan Super 3 - Jay Leno's Garage

[@phildolan1861]

I grew up with my parents, two sisters and grandma. I had my own bedroom, my sisters shared a bedroom, and my grandma had her own bedroom. And I was so upset and jealous that my sisters had each other to hang out with at bedtime that I would "sneak" into my grandma's bedroom every night and stay up WAY too late with my grandma watching TV, drinking soda, and eating junkfood. My grandma had three daughters and I was the only boy in two generations. I'd hang out in her room and we'd first watch MASH or Coach, and then I would fall asleep watching Jay Leno every night. She had such a crush on you, Mr. Leno (you won't read this, I bet). But if you do, you are part of the best memories of my life. Thank you, sir. (Also, I was a mechanic for 18 years before becoming a truck driver...haha)

I'm 8 miles from the Morgan factory in Malvern Link. There's a local Morgan 3-wheeler club that meets in Ombersley, 6 miles in the opposite direction, every month. Even though I don't own a Morgan, I own a 1932 Morris Minor Two-Seater, they 'tolerate' me joining them on the Fruiterers Arms pub car park 😂

We are so lucky that Johnny Carson or whoever it was that picked Jay Leno to be on The Tonight show did so Jay Leno is the car man. This was his true calling and this will be his legacy to the world.

[@petesmitt]

NBC picked Leno; Carson wanted Letterman.

[@danielbuckner2167]

I didn't like Leno then. I didn't think he was funny.... now I think his grandpa humor suits him well and can NOT have anything but respect for a man so willing to share the fruits of his wealth with those of us that could never afford such rare beauties as he keeps as well as his vast and deep knowledge of classic cars that only a true enthusiast would have. The very way he collects not just a vehicle but the history of the previous owners speaks volumes about his humility. I may not have thought he was funny but I'm sure glad that he was given that job to make the money he has spent pursuing a love of automobiles we all share. The man is likely far too busy playing in the shop but I hope someone tells him thank you for the millionth time anyway!

I have an unreasonable love for these "motorcars". I would totally daily drive one of these wearing old-school leather goggles, and I live in the Northwest Coast! I'm afraid I like the older models...I feel they have more charm, but the new one is still pretty damn cool. Thanks to Johnathan for bringing this by for us to see, and thanks to Jay and the Crew for another fun episode! ,✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦

[@fishhuntadventure]

BUILD ONE! :) Seriously, build something you want over the course of a year. Or just buy one

[@joevanseeters2873]

That new Morgan looks stunning. What a great homage to the original Morgan. I love the design of the new Morgan, especially those large wheels with the disc covers which is a great looking design for this vehicle. I would imagine you'd get quite a bit of interest and questions if you drive one of these beautiful machines around whatever town you may live in. Especially on a weekend day out and about on the open rode. I rode Harley Davidson's for years and this is a much more interesting machine. I would much rather be driving one of these in my older age than a two wheeled motorcycle or even a trike. This little baby is the perfect vehicle for where I live in Colorado, as you could drive through the beautiful mountain passes and back roads of our beautiful state. The only problem is you could only use it half the year, but oh what a half it would be.

[@GunplaDad]

I live a mile from the factory and it’s always hilarious to hear people talk about our little town. It’s a weird place built at the bottom of some hills and people come from all over the world to see our tiny car factory. Great video

[@bluesky9093]

Nice review, I truly appreciate the variety of vehicles Jay brings to his channel. No silly drag races, stunts or some giddy guy dancing around the car announcing - Look at what I just bought. Just an honest car review by people who know what they are talking about. I would love to see Jay’s channel and Harry’s Garage collaborate on a review.

[@joejustice9467]

A friend and I had the good fortune to visit the factory in Dec. 1979. The smell of wood in the factory was wonderful. The engines lined up,included Buick/Olds V8's on one side and 4 cyl. on the other side. I remember the old gentleman who meet us and gave us a tour was great,old employee I'm sure. I still have a few letters from Mr. Morgan from 78-79 explaining the wait time for a new Morgan was 2 years. A Morgan sure beat a EV.

[@mcgusto82]

I really like how the Morgan rep makes no excuses for the car. He’s like a master jujitsu fighter. Its “weaknesses” are its strengths. Love it.

[@alanmorgan8647]

What a great guest! It's so much better when the representative from the car company is a technical guy, rather than somebody from the marketing dept. who knows all the sales patter, but who Jay has to subtly try to correct about anything mechanical on their own car!

Time for Jay to prove his love for British motors by finally featuring an Ariel Square Four. Come on Jay, you can do it.

[@aumkar2]

Wishing for more bikes! Definitely Square Four is in order given his love for Edward Turner! The Daimler Dart and the Bonnie for example.

The Morgan dealership in San Francisco was run by a guy named Bill. The shop was anything but luxurious it was at the end of a shed (pier) that is 85 to 90% a fish company’s and it smells like it too. The original small Morgan sign is still hanging on the cyclone fence that doubles as the front wall, the sign has some handwritten words added to it as a memorial to Bill.

My first car was a Morgan F-Type (small Ford engined) 3 wheeler - I had a race with a hearse on the way back from buying it - the hearse won! The men inside with top hats removed were willing me to over-take them through the glass but the Moggy just wouldn't do it. Later I fitted an aquaplane aluminium cylinder head and an SU carb. In England you could drive a 3 wheeler at 16 rather than 17 for a 4-wheeler in those days and they were cheaper to tax and insure.
