“A Bad Accident. No one was killed and no one was hurt, no one had seat belts on either. It all happened on a trip from England to Jacksonville, Florida. These cars were on a ship and they got into a bad storm. Result, the cars broke away from their chains and bounced together and it was a complete total, all 150 cars.” LS
They just need a little body work, a fresh coat of paint… Is that an Austin-Healey at the bottom of the frame?

Ha! That’s unreal. I really enjoy these photos. Do you have a flickr account where you upload them too?
Glad you enjoy them.

it does appear to be a Healey in the bottom of the frame. coming from England it would make sense.
