Special Collection

I was happy to learn that the California Auto Museum will be hosting a microcar show next year, from March 15 to August 5, 2019 - especially great news for me, given that CAM is about a mile and a half from my house. A friend of mine is on the Board of the museum was talking about the show and knew I had a microcar (or, uh, four). I told him about the Crosleys and one of the things I mentioned was that my 1950 wagon had been featured in Road and Track Magazine back in 1975.  He couldn't even picture what a Crosley looked like, so I told him I'd send him a few photos.

As I got the pictures together I looked to see if the R&T article had ever been posted online. I did some googling and found what seemed like it might be an online version of the article. I clicked through to the site and could not believe what I was seeing...
