    That link didn't explain anything either

    4078 looks like some kind of big Opel from the early 70s.
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670
    Yep, a 1970 Opel Kapitan B, Kind of an appropriate name gor a Polizei Kreuzer :P

    I don't know what it is, but little Danny Panoz must have taken a long look at it before introducing his car.

    but it's nice to look at>>

    The beautiful AC Cobra.
  • stickguystickguy Member Posts: 53,463
    looks like a 289, the good "real" one.

  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670
    Yep, it's a '64 Shelby 289 Cobra, slightly modified, noting the extra wide wires which look like Borranis rather than the Dunlop wires the little Snakes came with, and of course the roll bar.

    I want to say that it is a Daimler Princess. Is that right?

    Daimler D420 I believe, and it was in production for far too long
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670

    You can say that again, the pictured car is a 1988 model. Does the "420" come from it's being on a Jag 420 platform?

    Apparently the British royals still have a
    small fleet of them and I believe they're still used as a basis for many hearses in the UK.

    '71 for the Goat?

    The convertible is a '63ish Falcon.
  • fintailfintail Member Posts: 58,469
    Yeah I think the 420 must have something to do with the old Jag. They date from the same period

    The black convertible is indeed a 63 Falcon (maybe a Sprint?), I dunno the year of the goat, c.70 or so
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670
    The Falcon is a '63 but you guys don't know your Goats. It is most definitely a 1970 (I owned a '70 'vert 4sp-400CID-4V).

    Looks eastern european for whatever reason.

    The little convertible is a '60 Falcon Sprint..260 v-8, I believe..Fast little buggers....Jack

    Fiat 128 hatchback, I don't know if it has a trim level name
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670
    It was known in the USA as the Fiat 128 Coupe. Perhaps it looks Eastern European to Juice becuse so many Fiat sourced cars were there at one time.

    I could be wrong but IIRC the V8 Sprint was not offerred in the first year of Falcon production (1960).

  • fintailfintail Member Posts: 58,469
    Yeah I think the Sprint debuted in 63, with a 260, later had a 289. Before I got my Galaxie when I was 16, I had my eyes set on a really nice 63 Sprint hardtop - but it vanished one day.

    I know what 4111 is....but the name escapes me. Something odd and rare.

    Pegaso Z103 circa 1952/3 - nice car....
  • fiatownerfiatowner Member Posts: 75
    They did facelift this model a couple of times although the changes were minor, and mostly related to rear lights, number plate mountings etc... This is still a fairly common sight for funerals, and it was only in production for so long because there were no competitors - only stretched saloons like Volvo.
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670
    The caption says it's a Z102 ca. 1956. I got it from a highline Concours website, they're usually particular about these things. link (scroll down)

    Let's go for a drive>>

    ...in a '73 Porsche 914 with a Sparco steering wheel and driver's seat.
    A time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing.
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670
    Close enough, it's a '70 Porsche 914-6. I didn't even notice the non-stock wheel.

    RR Silver Dawn, early 50s
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670
    Oh, you're good, I thought for sure someone would say Silver Wraith.

    The Silver Dawn was the first Roller to be developed specifically for export so most were LHD. It was essentially a rebadged Bentley Mk. VI.

    no my specialty, so I will guess 1970 deVile convertible

  • bumpybumpy Member Posts: 4,425
    I'd rather have the Lotus anyway.
  • andys120andys120 Member Posts: 23,670
    Stickguy says 1970, Bumpy says '66. Split the difference and you arrive at the correct answer--
    it's a 1968 Deville Convertible :shades:
