About this Book

Did you ever hear of a 1948 four-door sedan - with a 166 bhp, rear-mounted, air-cooled engine - that would do 135 mph and 0-60 in 10 seconds? If Brooks Stevens had convinced Studebaker to build what he called the "Familia," could we have had an economy compact priced at 1,085? These are some of the questions you'll find answered in this book, the story of some 26 prototypes and also-rans - the intiquing cars that never were.
