Looks like they tried to eliminate the hood ornament and instead go for a
weird pointed hood.....But, just got back from the eye doctor and I'm
definitely farsighted.

A very ugly British car
I like the comment on the BaT website: "Nice legs,
shame about the face."
A car this homely makes me very appreciative of the
classic lines of
an MG or TR.

Rare British
Fiberglass: 1951 Martin Ford Special
$30k barely buys you a pair of shoes in
Monaco, but we think that
this interesting 1951 Martin Ford roadster would
draw more attention
in town than the housekeeper's latest Aston. This body
was installed
in place of the stodgy Ford bodies of the time and is propelled
by an
885cc 4-cylinder. Find it

oolid=10001&customid=&ext=280437488768&item=280437488768>here
on eBay in
Monaco with a ~$31k Buy-It-Now. Special thanks to BaT
reader Marc M. for this
submission!
