1955 Austin Healey 100S: Full Circle

Not everyone gets the chance to own the kinds of cars they adored as children, and far fewer end up with the exact same one that made them fall in love with sports motoring in their impressionable youths. Tony Parkinson’s Austin Healey 100S is one such example of that story though, and he is the proud owner of the exact car that his boyhood self idolized growing up outside of Adelaide, Australia. He recalls seeing it out for testing and tuning when it was being set up as a competition car, and now Parkinson is the one behind the wheel during historic race events and road rallies. Patience pays off, and if you’re dedicated and persistent enough then your boyhood dream can live in your garage. Drive Tastefully®
