Austin A30


I was in Richmond this morning when I drove past an auto junk yard. Lined up next to the street, stacked one on top of another, were Lincoln Continentals with suicide doors, an Alfa Romeo GTV, a Jaguar XJ-S, etc. I had to stop as I am looking for a Citroen chevron emblem to decorate my Honda (inspired by Jalopnik's Murilee Martin). There were no French cars in the yard, but there were many rare cars in stock. My favorite is this Austin A30, the first I had ever seen in person. It has to be the smallest four door saloon I've ever seen.

The yard is at the intersection of Richmond Parkway and Gertrude.
