USA: Automobile Quarterly. Good - See Note Below/Good - See Note Below. 1993. First Edition. Hardcover. 144 Pages 0911968989 British sports cars swept through the United States after World War II. Names like MG, Jaguar, Triumph and Austin-Healey were familiar to virtually every auto enthusiast, and dealerships sprang up in most towns big enough to have paved streets and a couple of traffic lights. These were the dominant marques, but they weren't the only ones, and they certainly weren't the most interesting. In came Allards, Frazer Nashes, A.C.s, Bristols and Morgans. The late Fifties saw a new crop of small British sports cars, including Turners, Jomars, Berkeleys and Austin-Healey Sprites. But by the mid-Sixties most of these Marques had failed or left the market. A decade later they were just memories.This book is the tale of those cars that were imported by the handfuls and by the thousands. It is the tale of the models, the people and the conduits through which these fascinating and highly collectible cars reached American shores. And it is the tale of the sudden expansion and total collapse of an entire market and genre of automobile. There have been many books on British sports cars, but never before has there been one that tells the story of how and why they came to America. Black-and-white and colour illustrations. Some foxing to reverse side of jacket. A couple of small separation scuffs to page edges. The Condition is Good. .
