A visitor to the site recalls his friend who owned a rare Squire sportscar, and wonders whether it's the car already featured on the following page.

Hi Rick,
Re the Reference Library.
I don't know about the copyright but there is lot of good Lucas material available in various web locations. For example this one:
http://www.justbrits.com/Articles/lucas_course.html
I don't know whether you would choose to host your own copies or just link to other sites.
