In the late 1950s, the owner and publisher of Road & Track Magazine, John Bond, put forth a series of articles on the design of a car that could be competitive and win the LeMans race for America.  Bond assembled a team of engineers and brought forth his good friend and automotive styling expert, Strother Macminn, to design the body for this car.  The articles below are the complete series (1-4) of the design of the Bond-Macminn LeMans Coupe automobile.
