I know I've seen the more info on the Autocars you are talking about. I'll have to do some thinking about where they might be. There are a couple of US Navy Links that might be of interest to you if I can find them. In particular one to navy flight magazines from the war years. First I've got to remember the name of the magazine.

Here is one link that might be of interest http://archives.aths.org/archives/default.aspx?aid=5 , had you found this one? Has 3475 Autocar photos



Cheers Phil
