This is a 1936 Austin 7 "Nippy" built for export with LHD.

"Nippy", by the way, is not the owner's nickname for the car.
It's Austin's model name. Austin used rather - to us - unusual
model names: the Ruby, the Chummy, the Ulster, and the Box.

I missed a shot here. The driver's passenger is a standard
poodle wearing a leather pilot helmet and goggles, but the
passenger jumped out of the car before I could get a shot.

    Well, they say a good photograph tells a story. Sometimes, though, the
    photographer has to fill in the details.

    A very interesting story. I like this shot too. The colors compliment the scene. But gee, my little red wagon was almost as big as this. ;)

    Nice foto but for the background's busyness , a common problem at car shows.

    Too bad about the perro.
