BMC cars were popular in the streets of 50s - 60s Manila. Aside from being middle class family transport, petrol or diesel A55s and A60s were operated as taxicabs. I was surprised to find this A55 Farina since many have been scrapped years ago. We had one and I learned to drive in it.

Austin Healey Sprite MK1 looks like an aborted restoration ...

I am glad to have taken these pictures...passed by recently and a house is being constructed on this once empty lot...all the cars are gone.
