The Utility Four was replaced by the Atomic 4 in 1947. - Paul E. 1979 C&C 29 Mk1 S/V Johanna Rose Carrabelle, FL On May 17, 2013, at 8:33 AM, cnc-list-requ...@cnc-list.com wrote: Date: Fri, 17 May 2013 09:23:05 -0300 From: "Hoyt, Mike" <mike.h...@impgroup.com> To: <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Subject: Re: Stus-List Marine vs Automotive parts Message-ID: <4cdebb6b0f16c541ba8f985b72705d5416021...@hfxexc02.impgroup.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" I once heard a story that the Atomic 4 was the power plant in the WW II landing craft. Anyone know if this is true? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com
