BTW, trying to figure out what car that is in the foreground, with the cut-out
bonnet. Kinda looks like an Austin-Healey, but looks like
it might have a V8
with twin carbs, and the shifter is certainly not stock spec. Almost looks
like it might be customized as well, as the
cut-line behind the fenders
suggest a front-hinged tilt front-end.
I do love the pic, as the
representation of a great time in American car culture.... Too bad I was only
1 at the time ;-)

Review. Check it out in the NY Times where it originally
appeared. Looks like young people are not so enamored with
automobiles as we
were.
