What is this car?

What car?

On the left? Is that Austin or what?

Looks like one of Donald's designs to me.

That red one is an E-Type, no doubt.

Tr4 on the rack, E Type, Healy, Mini on the right.

I assume you're referring to the Healey as a separate make? (1947 - 54) Looking at some photos, the only that might fit to my eye would be the Elliot saloon...

I'm thinking that's a custom Austin Healey (maybe 100?) coupe. They did make a few, but not sure if any survived -- or if any had that sort of body. The pictures I found showed more of an MGA Coupe top on them.

It's far too low to be an Elliott!

There's a discussion about it here https://www.britishcarforum.com/bcforum/ubbthreads.php/topics/669140/Information_please#Post669140

So far no one knowsexactly, but it's an Austin-Healey 100 or 3000 coupe.

The factory made a few (2? 3? 4?) this could be one of them or a special built by someone else.

Judging from the recessed license plate mounting, I would say it's a custom job.

Have been thinking about this - and wondering of it is something like a Frazer Nash Lemans Coupe

The coupes didn't have the fastback like the one in the picture. The lights are similar to the ones on the Frazer Nashs and it could be a special but the lines still look more Austin Healey to me.

Close, but no cigar.

Why don't you believe the guy who talked with its mechanic?
