I don't know the particulars of the Morgan's construction, but in common automotive parlance, "chassis" includes the frame in a body-on-frame type vehicle.

Early Morgans did have an ash chassis. They used other woods as well for upper structures.
Except the "frame" was steel. All that was ash was the formers that held the steel and aluminum body panels - just like an early Fisher bodied Chev. Or an MG TC or TD.

On a Morgan the "frame" is a set of ribs and stringers and whatnot to which the body panels are attached. It is different from the "chassis".
