[Healeys] Austin Healey 1959 Metropolitan The 1500

[John Sims]

I had a teacher in High School that had one and one day the football team
carried it into the school lobby. Lotsa laughs. Today, they would have been
prosecuted.

Nonsense. Just seeing it was enough for me. My kindergarten teacher,
Ms. Johnson, a fresh-out-of-college perky blonde and my first crush,
had a brand-new red-on white one.  It was the perfect car for her.
