Found this photo on today's new HVA site:
Washington Streetscape 1950s HVA.jpg
 
Very cool photo! Looks like a BN4 among all those 1950s American iron behemoths! Looks like the little Healey is taking up 2 parking spaces too! Lol
 
The shape of the top makes me think it's a BN1 or BN2.
On further review you may be right, it's good to see its holding its own commanding two parking places :smile:. That is until some big brute lifts the rear bumper and wheel barrows it onto one space.
 
Nice photo. Seeing the Healey next to all those big, boxy American cars is a reminder of just how hot a Healey must have seemed back in its day.

Hey!! watch that Nevets:

That's my 1957 Pontiac Star Chief Hard Top setting just to the right of the parking lot entrance. :applause:
 
Hey Keoke, do you still own the 1948 Lincoln? Is it a convertable? Seen one at my local car show and it stole the whole show with so many people mobbing it...including me! Had a long talk with the owner, he stuffed in a nice V-8 upgrade but can't remember what it was? Anyway, wonderful car that 48 Lincoln.
 
YES i DO :
But they are both Hard tops.
Who wants a V8 when you have a V12--?-:highly_amused:

OH!! My 48 belonged to Tittie Brown one of Al capon's boys
It has repaired bullet holes all down one side.:highly_amused:


raw





Some one owns the only 4 door factory produced 48.
I have seen pictures but never saw the car.
 
I'm from Chicago, those bullet holes would bring a premium here! Wow...that's got to be worth something! I would uncover those! Or I would be happy to ventilate it for you! Rat a tat tat. We can call it a on body ventilation ��
