The hydro-elastic was pretty radical and cool too. It did have that nasty habit of uncontrolled steering oscillation but that was just part of the excitement of owning this FWD English car. You couldn't get that kind of fun from a rear drive MG or Spitfire - those had the self-jacking rear ends. :-)
I've been saving mine, waiting for the fashion cycle to swing my way.
Get an EV and find a couple of those 10-hp Stirling generators that Philips made for Winnebago back in the '70s (quiet, on-board electical generator). Put them on a trailer and hook up cables to your batteries. Then you can just pull off the road and shovel in some wood chips, bird poop, or whatever, and go another 100 miles.
The "self-jacking rear ends" were early Spitfires, not MGs. MGs were solid rear axles with semi-elliptics. Early Spitfires had swing axles.
You may be thinking of the first AH Sprites. They had quarter-elliptic springs and were almost self-steering (into the ditches on the side of the road) above 70 mph. No jacking, though.
I rarely got to see a RADAR scope, and only when I was carrying a 21" video monitor into or out of the control room. I worked the other end: The pulse transmitters, receivers & timing circuits. About all I really saw were the two channels of weather data for the pilot ready rooms while working in our shop.
Military bases were actually constructed on the Canadian border to facilitate this plan.
So lets see. Enslavement. A whole (US) economy built on it. Until we abolished it. (White house built with slave labour.)

Equality laws in America onltenacted in the 1960's. Ku Klux Klan. An American president who wanted to ship them back to Africa. Assassination of black leaders. Invasion of Hawaaii and enslavement of it's population. Invasionof Philipines and other parts of Spanish empire. Subversion of numerous South and Central American countries. Good example here:-
Given that the US doesnt buy any Iranian oil..it would appear that the Brits would be freezing to death by the end of next month..as THEY buy Iranian oil
You really are "challenged" as far as history and poltiics goes..arent you?
Pity about that.
