Austin Healey 100-4

I rarely dream of cars anymore but I suspect the 100-4 will forever be “the one that got away.” I had a shot to buy one in high school and it was just a little beyond my reach. They are now WAY beyond my reach.

I don’t recall now how I came across this article but it a pretty clever concept well executed. So what if motorcycle manufacturers decided to design cars? http://www.jenningsharley-davidson.com/pages/news/if-6-motorcycle-manufacturers-made-cars.htm

The following are a couple of examples. There are several more, check out the article.

The original Triumph T100 was supposed to designate it would do 100 MPH. The Bonneville became the T120. 

Alp Sungurtekin’s 1950’s 650cc powered Triumph Pre-Unit was built to go 200 MPH. Hence, the T200.
