November 3, 1957 — Levelland, TX  
12:05 a.m. Texas Tech college student Newell H. Wright is driving west one mile west of Smyer, Texas, when the ammeter gauge on his car dashboard starts fluctuating widely.

The car motor gradually goes out then the headlights and radio die. He gets out to check and sees a white or aluminum-colored, oval-shaped object flat on the bottom like a loaf of bread, with a bluish-green tint, about 75–125 feet long. After a few minutes, the object suddenly rises up from the road ahead and ascends almost vertically at great speed slightly to the north, disappearing in seconds. Afterward the car can start again. [Eberhart]

When I prepared this case a couple years ago, I included a ton of sources for the flap in general and used this case as an example. So you can find many of the Nov. 2-3rd sightings, including this one, in the add-on sources further down.
