Resting Next to an Honest-to-God Classic

I parked next to this 1955 (or so) Austin Healey yesterday at Vic Thomas Park and I did all I could to keep from drooling on it. This is a thing of beauty.

The AH is probably the most popular sports car in the history of Great Britain and it was in its golden age 1950 (when it was introduced) to about 1958. This model, to my mind, is the peak. Look at the way the windshield folds back when resting and soak up the beautiful design. Even the hood is designed beautifully.
