Morris Six (1928)
Morris Six was a 2½-litre six-cylinder car with an overhead camshaft for its overhead valves first displayed at the October 1927 Motor Show at Olympia as Morris Light Six. When he bought Wolseley in February 1927 W R Morris gave Wolseley employees his reason. It was that he wanted to make good 6-cylinder cars and Wolseley could do that. He said he particularly admired their 2-litre Wolseley 16/45.〔St John C Nixon. ''Wolseley, a saga of the Motor Industry'', G T Foulis & Co, London, 1949〕
The Morris Light Six was the first car to use the all steel body made by Pressed Steel at Cowley but on the road it proved too unstable to enter full production. Revised and given a wider track and longer wheelbase it was named Morris Six.
It was replaced in the Morris catalogue by Morris Isis which was announced in July 1929 and had a new chassis for the engine.〔New British Car For Oversea. ''The Times'', Thursday, Jul 11, 1929; pg. 10; Issue 45252〕
==Engine==
The six-cylinder 2½-litre engine has inclined overhead valves on either side of the cylinder head. They are opened by rockers operated by a single overhead camshaft which is driven by double roller chain. The S.U. carburettor is bolted to the cylinder head which may be removed with the valve train without affecting engine timing. The crankshaft has been given four bearings. The pistons are of aluminium and the connecting rods are steel. Cooling water circulates by pump. 〔
