Help identify a car

[TenEightyOne]

The grass is Castle Howard, not sure about the car... I don't think it's a Marcos as @Downhill Dino suggests.

EDIT: I notice the lights are from a Mondeo Mk I, but it's not a Noble M12 (the most famous car to use those lights). Kit car from a Ford bin?

Not a Marcos as it would say so along the spoiler, and I don't recognise the badge.

Here's the Marcos for comparison.

[Downhill Dino]

Yeah probably isn't after looking around, the general shape reminds me so much of a Marcos. But that emblem has been confusing me.

Saw this 90's looking sports car at a car show but I'm not sure at all what the name of it is. Tried google image search but the best it can come up with is "supercar".

It's a Shelsley T2

Wow, photos of that thing look like someone melted a del sol (good work on the ID btw).

 

[Dennisch]

We have a live one! Help!

 

[wfooshee]

I know the Shelsley question was three years ago, but it was only a few posts ago. I just couldn't help myself with this:

Mid-60s GM fullsize vibes. Pontiac Parisienne? Possibly an Australian variant?

 

[MatskiMonk]

Possibly an Australian variant?

Steering wheel would probably be on the other side if it was 'strayan.

I didn't even look inside.



@Dennisch duh, 1966 Impala.

Bel Air. 2 lights instead of 3! But you got me in the right direction. Muchos Gracias. 👍

Good grief. The Bel Air taillights don't wrap the quarters either.

Can anyone ID the highlighted car? Picture is most likely from 1967.

It appears to be a Simca 1000 or 1200 S coupe.

That’s it - thanks!

 

[Serge.D]

Does someone know the name of the white car on the trailer?

 

[TexRex]

Elan or Elite.

Edit: Looks to be a Series 1 Elite. 1958-63, if I'm not mistaken.

Pretty, little thing.

 

[Serge.D]

I googled it and I think it's a Lotus Elite series 1.

 

[TexRex]

Lotus

Yeah, duh...didn't occur to me to post the make. Apologies.

I googled it after you said Elan or Elite and I think most people know that Elan and Elite or Lotus.

I never wear my glasses when i take photos of cars,but I think you will need binoculars to identify the first one.

The second is a Ferrari 456. The first one looks like it might be some kind of Alfa, but not one with which I'm familiar enough to say confidently.

The red car behind the Alfa 147.

I didn't even see there was one. Maybe an F360? I'm not super familiar with the mid-engined cars after the F355.

Sorry,I should have said,the car behind the Alfa. 😁

1928 Model A Ford?

No. Split windshield. Fords had one-piece windshields well before that, and if they were split, it was horizontal for ventilation. Those horizontally split windhields were also exceptionally tall.

Can't make out enough details. Even the pitch of the grill shell can't be made out and that could be useful.

I think it's probably something European, or at least with European coachwork, from maybe '29 to '34.

Can I assume that was photographed in Belgium? If so, then it's far more likely to be a European car than American (although I am aware that Fords were built in Europe during this time.) There are flowers draped over the car, so we can assume it's a car-for-hire for weddings and other occasions. You might investigate who has a service like that in the area and see what their inventory is.

1929 Citroen C4?

Nope, still lacking the split windshield. Also quite different in other areas.

One of those would make a pretty ****ing sweet little hot rod, though. Maybe with the V6 from an SM.

Well, I got part of that right.

It appears to be a 1931 Chrysler Imperial CG Eight.

The model ran from 1931 to 1933, and the latter two years were chunkier along the beltline.
