All functional aero tricks and meant for track use.
Don't look at the name of the file, that's too easy.

Isn't that the upcpoming Maserati CUV? Can't recall the name but I think it starts with a K. It looks like the Alfa cuz they're closely related IIRC.

I don't believe the Maserati Kubang and the Alfa Romeo Kamal are related. The Kubang concept was 600mm longer and 80mm wider than the Kamal. I also believe the Kubang was a longitudinally-engined vehicle while the Kamal had a transverse engine.
Both projects have been on-again/off-again for years.

Let's hope they are strangled in their cribs.

That'd be a nice base for some BRG.

Okay it's not an Allard. Looks a bit like the early Nash-Healeys but I don't think that's it.
Frazer-Nash? Kurtis Kraft?
2001 BMW 330ci/E46, 2008 BMW 335i conv/E93
How 'bout a clue?

But I have no clue about the car
The the next years had an Italian-designed body with a grill only a mother could love IMHO. The 1951 was a one year style.
Stumbled onto this looking at Nashes.

I know what made me think it wasn't a N-H, I thought
the early ones had little fins as well. I wish I had seen this press photo>

I took that to be that you weren't thinking NH could be it. We'll split the prize.
I am amazed by how many cars I know next to nothing about from that era. The Nash grill startled me when I saw the first green picture.
I gave a hint with the Hudson and Chevy using a similar color that it was a US car for the 1951. I wonder if that's how the light green got used. It's not a color I'd consider European. Or is it?
Wikipedia:
"The Nash-Healey debuted at the 1951 Chicago Auto Show. It had luxurious appointments including leather upholstery with foam rubber cushions, an adjustable steering wheel, chrome full wheel covers, and five 4-ply whitewall tires. The only colors available were "Champagne Ivory" and "Sunset Maroon".
"The new car's suggested retail price (MSRP) Free On Board (F.O.B.) New York City was set at US$3767."
The 52s-54s had the kickup on the rear fender. They were designed by an Italian group.

So where did the Hudson Seafoam Green come from?

Pinin Farina did the styling IIRC, not exactly an anonymous "Italian group".

My uncle had one (or was it a 1600? I can't remember now). Really wanted to drive it, but the opportunity never presented itself.
Yep, it was known in the JDM as the Datsun Fairlady but the importer was smart enough to know "Fairlady" wouldn't fly in the USA. That particular example has Minilite style mags and bigger-than-stock tires. I'm not sure if the hood scoop is stock.

Unless there's some significance to the fact that the plate
starts with "NSU". :confuse:

(Bob put it up on Straightline this morning).

Straightline
That links to the mystery car, so don't go there if you don't want to see the spoiler. :shades:
Bob got the Helmet Head moniker here a few years ago after posting a shot of himself rallying or racing some Subaru somewhere - think Dukakis in that tank.

The SU bit is a former code for somewhere in Scotland, and as rural Scotland didn't issue such large amounts of plates there are a number of issues which were never used at the time and are now used by the licencing authorities to plate historic cars which have come along to be re-registered, for example if they have been imported or found in a barn with no current reg...
I was interested in one of the other cars mentioned in the article, although it is way out of our period here, as there is apparently a Trojan RE at this museum in Nashville - a very rare beast in the UK, even in the 30's when it was new, so I've never seen one of those either
( Memo to self - what airline flies London- Nashville ?)
It's very near the airport. Need a good map for driving but easy and close.
BA, KLM, AA, Northwest, Delta, and others offer 1-stop service. No through flights.

I have to plug my wife's aunt's museum.
Golden Age of Trucking in Middlebury, CT
While you are in Chattanooga, you can head over to Coker Tire and get some new 650/700-20 Michelin Double Rivet tires for your 1929 Cunningham.
Yep it's a '56 Suburban, GMC and Chevy both used the name back then as did Plymouth and DeSoto. I guess there weren't so many trademark lawyers in the '50s.
