Classic cars are like flowers

They all come out once the sun arrives! It's been a lovely day today (so naturally I was stuck in the office all day), but I went for a drive this evening (no, not in the Healey unfortunately) and being a geeky car spotter saw loads of nice motors about including:
Austin Healey 3000 MkIII
Lamborghini Murcielago
Lamborghini Gallardo
Ferrari 575 Superamerica
Ferrari 512TR
Aston Martin Ulster (rather brilliantly caked in mud, definately a car that gets used rather than shown!)

Curiously I saw no Spridgets. I fear I may have to remedy this myself...

Last eve I watched a PBS proggy done about the Pittsburgh 'burb of Oakland*. They spent a good bit of time showing Schenley Park, the Vintage racing. A quick shot of an SP250 goin' around a corner pursued by a TR-2. Lots of BMW 1600/2002's, some Alfas, an Elva on a tow-strap.
