    For those of you who have seen the movie -- at the beginning there is a light blue "Aston Martin" (?) car in the main character's body shop. I am not sure it's an Aston Martin (looks like a classic according to the front grille), but regardless -- do you guys have any idea what car it is exactly?

    Thanks!

    I thought it was an Austin healey. Couldn't tell you what model but I think the brand is right.

    The front one (which I was asking about) is an Aston Martin, am I right? Any idea which model?

    Thanks!

    That light blue two seat roadster? It is an Austin-Healey 3000, don't know which type. Not related to Aston Martin.

    Here is another view

    Exactly as per IMCDB , it's a series 1 A-H 3000. Later models had vertical bars in the grille.
