Tatra T87

This is a photograph taken at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1997 and is a of a car which is a rare sight in this country.
It's a 1946 Tatra 87, a streamlined car with a very low drag co-efficient, and I should have moved a little to the right when taking the photograph as you would have then seen the little fin on the back which helped the stability of the car. You can read about it in this Wikipedia article.
