This beautiful '61 classic Austin Healy3000 pulled in yesterday as we were enjoying our breakfast at The Baker's Table in Santa Ynez. We loved the color, it was a perfect pure red. The sleek lines were enchanting.
As we were leaving, Ron asked permission to take his picture pulling away. He mentioned to Ron that he had in his collection another 22 cars. Perhaps next time, we are at the Baker's Table, he will drive a new one for us to enjoy!
Happy Wednesday!
Ron and Alexandra:
Wow, what a great car. Can't say I have seen one of these on the road for some time! I can just imagine what his collection must be!

Jeff Dowler, CRS I am hoping next time we are there, he will show up with another car. When we lived in Los Angeles, one of our commercial real estate clients had a large warehouse full of vintage cars. It was such a treat to see them all. including a gull win MBZ that was a beautifful metallic pink and the interior was all Louis Vuitton including the set of luggage in the trunk. MB had it flown on a Lufthansa jet to Stuttgart, our client also for one of their celebration years. A
Ron and Alexandra- one of my favorite cars!!!!! Love it.

Hi Alexandra,
Question #1: who wouldn't love that color red?
Question #2: who wouldn't love that car?
Answer to both questions: certainly, not I. Loved them both.

A beautiful automobile! Thanks for sharing your photographs.
1961 was a special year for me.
You know I love this Alexandra but it would have been better without the bonnet strap and the louvered hood. They're from the earlier 100M model.

Admittedly the color is stunning.
Good morning Alexandra. I thought this was going to be about wine. Oh well, I love the car too.

Oh my, that car is a heart-stopper. I love everything about it.

That car is certainly easy on the eyes! I have never been much of a car guy, but I definitely appreciate a good looking car.

Kevin J. May unlike you we are not experts on cars. I just focus on the design and the general feel of the car...Thank you for the expert opinion, we treasure that. A

I can't say I'm an expert, however, I do have a mulitude of favorites with which I'm quite familiar. This has been a constant since my single digit days.
Sheila Anderson I have had old wines thanks to friends...However, this was a real beauty in my mind. A

Debb Janes EcoBroker and Bernie Stea JD That it was. The owner was so pleased with our compliments and those of the others at the bakery, that he told Ron, he is going to drive this car more often. A
Brian England I like older cars as the designers at those times, were not copy cats. A

There is nothing finer than a pure unadulterated red car. There is only one thing wrong with that one. . .It isn't parked in my garage!

Hello Alexandra and Ron - it seems as if everyday is an auto show of sorts in California. Extra nice eye candy.

Myrl Jeffcoat I can relate to that, and I would love to see his other cars too. We had a client in Los Angeles who had a warehouse full of beauties. I wanted the pink Gullwing MBZ. A
Michael Jacobs This is one the many things I appreciate about Southern California...so many classics to see. A
Kevin J. May my nephew loves cars, and I keep sending him photos like these! Like you he has been in love with cars since he was little. A
