the Austin Healey 100-4, wasn't designed by a pro, but certainly the amateur made a classic beauty of car designs


For the 1952 Motor Show, at Earls Court in west London, Donald Healey built a one-off Healey Hundred. The body styling was by one Gerry Coker a body engineer,  not a professional designer, specializing in fitting panels to the chassis. 

After Healey and he had discussed the concept of the car, Gerry Coker sat down with his pencil and paper and came up with one of the classics of 20th century motoring.
