Almost, the first "Lincoln Continental Mark" was the 68 Mark III. The First Lincoln Continental was the 1941 Lincoln Continental, unless you count the "Continental" package available on the 1940 Zephyr. This is what lead to the so called "continental" kits we see on so many classic cars.

Lincoln was tryiing to spin Continental off as a seperate division the same way Chrysler did with Imperial, but was even less successful. Instead of admitting an early defeat, Ford began to remerge Lincoln and Continental in '59, and from '61 to '76 all Lincolns models were Continentals.

Clear as mud right? :confuse:

An AMC Rebel convertible. I will guess '69 or '70.

Don't think it is a machine, although it has the hodd scope. Weren't those all blue and white?

German plates, so probably some version we never got over here.

Is it a 1600?

andys120

You're warm but not quite there, Note the number of door handles (hint).

1604

andys120

Nope, It's a '62 BMW 1500, which preceeded the
1600 and 2002.

Here's a different angle>>

1962 Cadillac Coupe de Ville

andys120

Well that lasted about as long as I thought it would.

Try another?

YKC Mille Miglia/Julietta? (not positive on this one, I'm pretty sure it's a YKC kit car though)

andys120

Hmm, I don't know who YKC is but it's an Aquila Giulietta/Mille Miglia so you're mostly right.

It's obviously patterned after 1930's Alfas, dunno what they use for chassis or power.

ubbermotor

Close enough, '68 Rebel SST.

And your right it does have the same hood as "the Machine" which was only available in '70 and i red, white and blue.

Looks almost like a Nissan Note, but the grill is wrong.

andys120

Perhaps it's the Renault version of the Note.

.

ubbermotor

Perhaps, but I wouldn't know what that would be, and that looks like a Nissan emblem to me.

magnette

Frazer-Nash Mille-Miglia, early 50s - Bristol engined, I think...

magnette

Daihatsu Sirion SE - current model

You're knockin' em dead Magnette.

andys120

navigator89

Daihatsu Sirion is correct.

ubbermotor

A mid-50's Willys Pickup.

Honda Passport

nolid5

I agree, but was a 2 door Passport ever available in the U.S.? I only recall seeing 4 door Passports.

bumpy

andys120

Yep, it's a '55. I thought somebody'd jump in and say it was a Jeep, but nooo.. you had to identify it correctly!

nolid5

Then it must be a rebadged Isuzu -- Honda Rodeo?

andys120

hudsonthedog

The vehicle that looks like an Isuzu Amigo/Rodeo Sport or Isuzu Mu is actually a Honda Jazz.

bumpy

Honda Jazz it is. Even says so right on the B-pillar. Honda reused the name for a different sort of vehicle.

magnette

We got this as a Vauxhall Frontera - 2 or 4 door.

hudsonthedog

And "Jazz" was a Honda scooter before the Isuzu.

andys120

Can you ID this car before Magnette nails it?

ubbermotor

Cant see it.

How about this one;

andys120

That's a '54 Hudson Jet.

And here's another shot at #5642, can you see it now?

ubbermotor

Not a Hudson, or a Jet.

ubbermotor

And I'm still not seeing it.

fintail

Looks like a Triumph 2000 ca. 1965

magnette

1954 Willys Aero Eagle ?

magnette

Loads of these were used by the Met. Police in London in the sixties, and the 2.5pi that followed was a capable motorway cruiser, but the Rover 3500 with the ex-Buick V8 was more familiar later...
I always liked the Triumph 2000, I drove one a few times, and they are still quite common, although mostly as hobby cars now.

ubbermotor

Wow, even the year.

andys120

It's a Tr 2000 all right but it's a '63 Mk 1.

Try another>>

imidazol97

1977 Buick (???)

stickguy

sure looks like it. Andre is probably in a cold sweat right about now looking at this baby.

imidazol97

I don't know the model-lost track of the Buicks through the 70s. Is the year right?

kyfdx

Electra 225?
Around '76

ubbermotor

'77 was the year they downsized. The square headlights make it a '75 or '76 and I believe '75 had the grill trim under the headlights, making this a '76. The squarish tail-end would make it an Electra 225?
