Daniel:
That sounds very much like a juvenile fiction book titled "The Red Car" which I
read a decade earlier in junior high school. I'm not sure if that was what
launched my interest in LBCs or if it was Tom McCahill's road test of the MGA
in Popular Mechanics Magazine published about the same time, in the mid-'50s.
