A guy at work picked up a '50s Austin A-135 Vanden Plas Limousine at an 
estate sale last year amongst some old American '50s heavy metal. Right 
hand drive, in running but fair condition, if I remember his description 
correctly. I haven't seen the car. The story around town was that this 
old guy would go pick up a car load of the older widow ladies and take 
them to church on Sunday mornings. I might try to talk him into parting 
with it one of these days when I'd have someplace to put it. That would 
be a nice complement to the MGA on those days when I can't fit the kids 
and their friends into the MGA!
