My friend, Bill Wilkman, has undertaken documenting the Four Cylinder
Club of America. I am forwarding his email below. If you have any
information you'd like to contribute, I'm know he'd love to hear from
you.
Besides being a avid vintage car enthusiast, Bill is an architectural
historian and is the perfect man for the job. He has done some top
notch restorations on a number of rare Austin Devons and Dorset, a
Bugeye and A40 Sports roadster too. Bill assisted me when researching
my '46 Austin 10 and it's original owner and provided a great deal of
interesting information. Read his introduction and link to the site
below.
Please pass along to anyone who might be interested.
