Re: [DML] Biggest piece of crap article i think i've ever seen on the D

I tend to agree with Andy. The article was written with a skeptical  
tone that might sting us True Believers, but IMO it is entertainingly  
written, basically fair, and (given its brevity) surprisingly complete.

When I read the web page, I had a feeling that I had seen the text  
before.  It turns out that is is taken almost verbatim from a book  
called "The Complete Book of Collectable Cars 1930-90" by Richard M.  
Langworth. I assume that they licensed the contents of this book for  
the website.   The author is actually a pretty well-respected writer:

The "174cc" thing is obviously just a typo. In the book it shows as  
174CID, which is correct.
