This past weekend I participated in a local car show with my Healey (happy to say that I won in the "best sports car" division)...at the show was a boxy looking car called an American Austin...it looked like an old MG-TD!? It was built in 1939...almost had a look of a military vehicle...after doing some research online...I found that this company...then known as "American Bantam"...claimed to invent the jeep...which they won the contract to build during the war...after the war the car company vanished...around 4,000 cars were ever made...once my pictures get developed I'll post a picture here...it was a very interesting looking car...
Anyone else ever seen one?
