    Jeez, sorry to read this. Richard M. Langworth was a great automotive historian. He authored quite a few other books including two others in "The Postwar Years" series which are "Studebaker" and "Chrysler and Imperial." He also wrote a terrific book on the history of Kaiser-Frazer titled "The Last Onslaught on Detroit." And who among us has another great book he contributed to, the "Complete Book of Collectible Cars," 1940 - 1980.

  • Nothing out lives the written word. RIP Mr. Langworth and thanks for writing it down.
