From certain angles it looks like his mouth is open. I can't help hearing him yelling...
"I said, 'Cut the wheel to the LEFT!' "

I presumed it was, Oi! you've left your blinker on

Post above (#142), please identify the car. I'm guessing Jaguar?

Thanks!

You guessed right. Not sure the year (probably 59 or 60) Jaguar XK150 Drop Head Coupe.

I got to see the one at the Chrysler museum
in Michigan.

There were a few of them running around a small track at the New York Worlds Fair back in the 1960's.
Definitely the coolest exhibit for me at the time.
Who knew they would never make it into full production?????

Apparently 55 were made, 46 of them destroyed for tax reasons. The others are accounted for, Jay Leno has one (that figures).

I got to ride in a turbine car exactly like that when I was about 13. They (Chrysler I think) had one at the ‘64 Worlds Fair.
