    Actually, the GT-R that I showed looks more like your sleeper than that fastback (is it a later version?).

    Yep. KPGC110. That generation ran from '72 to '77 or so, but the GT-R model only lasted to 1973. The sedan was the first GT-R, 1969. Nissan went to a coupe for the weight savings in 1971.

    Corvette 427?
  • lemkolemko Member Posts: 15,261
    Is that the Lincoln 368 V-8 used in the 1956-57 Continental Mark II?
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670
    Nice going Lemko, that's exactly what it is.

    The stuff I've seen said Crown Custom...

    Good guess but it is neither a Miura or even a Lamborghini. The black and gold "prancing bull" emblem of Lamborghini is quite different from the one shown before>

    Yes it is the emblem of a specific model, I don't know how long it was in use but it was used for the 1975 MY.

    Here's another clue. This particular model was actually based on several different chassis from it's introduction in 1957 to it's last outing circa 1979. It was offered by a domestic maker. ;)

    Ford Ranchero.
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670
    Yep, it's a Ranchero emblem ca. 1975.

    That was a really good one....

    Even after knowing the answer, I can't ever recall seeing that on a Ranchero....

    My first guess was going to be the Taurus... ;)

    Is this a new Ford Fiesta? (total guess, but Ford does seem to recycle names over the years).

    Ford Ka, one size down from the Fiesta, which is a size down from the Focus.
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670
    Yep, that is the 2009 Euro Ford Ka. Many lament that it's styling is more or less standard small Eurocar and less distinctive the the original Ka which has changed little since it's introduction in 1996>

    I'm inclined to agree w the critics.

    It looks like a development of the Toyota S800 Sports, from the late 60's....

    No takers for #17663? Lemko this is right up your alley. Hudson?, Imidazol?

    Looks like GM to me - automatic transmission, power windows- how about 41 - 46 Oldsmobile / Buick / Cadillac?????
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670

    Oh, that's a '47 Cadillac! I missed the earlier pic because I was away this weekend. Trivia: Cadillac kept the 1946-47 era body through 1949 for the Series 75 long-wheelbase model.
  • bumpybumpy Member Posts: 4,425
    It started out as a Toyota 800, then the engineers added a gas turbine connected to a generator, which fed a set of batteries and an electric motor. Basically, the Chevy Volt ca. 1977.

    Yes, Ford does recycle names like Maverick and Zephyr, but Fiesta has been in constant use since 1976.

    Window line reminds me of a GAZ Pobeda, but this car is a trunkback and is newer. Maybe a Warszawa from the 60s.
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670
    You didn't waste any time on that one, it's a 1964 FSO Warszawa.

    Ferrari 250GT California Spyder...I can't tell if SWB or LWB...don't really care for that paint scheme.

    andys120, nice of you to throw a bone to hudsonthedog. That was an easy one, even I got it in 1.4 seconds, trouble was Tropical Storm Edouard was overhead down here in Houston and delayed my response.......

    Ferrari 250GT California Spyder...I can't tell if SWB or LWB

    LWB, it's for sale this w/e at Pebble Beach, expected to draw $5 million or more :surprise: I like the color scheme, it's sporty but not gimmicky and avoids the "all Ferraris are Red" cliche while still giving it a touch of Rosso Corso.

    The side chrome above the front wheel shows it's a 51 Chevy.
    The side chrome above the rear wheel shows it's a 52 Chevy! :confuse:
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670
    It's a 1951 Chevy Bel Air Hardtop.
