In 1955 R&C featured a five-part fantasy build of a modernized T roadster/sorts racer. I have No. 3 in the series and am looking for copies of parts 1, 2, 4, and 5. Scans would be fine, or I would be pleased to purchase good copies if anyone has any for sale.

No. 3 was featured in July 1955, so I'm assuming the series began and concluded in 1955. Here are two illustrations that appeared in No. 3.

TIA for any and all help.

I should have all, but I'm headed out the door for a road trip--let me know Monday if you haven't turned them up. Bruce

That's a neat illustration. Do you mind sharing the rest here once you get them. I'd like to see the others.

It must have been an influence on the early sketches of the XR 6 Tex Smith car before that became a high dollar project.

There's no mention of it in my Feb '55 R&C if that helps.

Ed -- Thanks for the kind offer, but since I have that one, please hang onto it for your own archives.
