Does anyone else remember a series back in the mid-60's by a guy named
Felson or Felton. The first book in the series was called (I think) "The
Red Car" and was about a late teen kid who was befriended by a European
mechanic. They bought a wrecked MG-TC, rebuilt it, and the rest (as they
say) was history. There were maybe four to six books in the series as I
remember. That series, along with Road & Track, was what moved me away
from drag racing toward sports cars. I'd like to find copies of those
books and have them for my grand sons, heck maybe my grand daughters, to
read.
Interesting how some things really stick with you.
