Defunct American motor vehicle manufacturer

The Gadabout was a car invented by Ray Russell in the——mid-1940s, "with an aluminum." And magnesium body. Built on an MG frame, "its proposed specifications included a two-cycle," air-cooled engine with direct fuel injection and "turbocharger," which would have been mounted either in front. Or in back at the "owner's discretion." It was featured in many Second World War publications as a model post-war car, but the project was not funded, so only the original Gadabout was ever produced.
