Air cooled really makes me think of Porsche...Please don't to that to me...

i doubt it but is it some kinda 924 concept... oh wait that is water cooled from vw...

maybe it is vw...
 
Maybe it is from VW, maybe it is VW.

It's a VW SP2 me thinks.

Although it was made in Mexico and Brazil and not Germany. So it isn't all that teutonic.
 
911_Carrera has it! Teutonic was a nice little trick, as it's still a Volkswagen though I don't think you'd have got it if I'd have said Brazillian.
 
Have fun.

Rambler Marlin! Nice one, Carrera! I've seen one in real life. I was getting gas, and this old guy in a suit drove it up and got out. I commented on how incredibly rare they are. He said yeah, he was an estate lawyer, and an estate he had just settled contained this car sitting in a barn under a dustcloth. It had about 20,000 miles on it. He bought it from the family on the spot.
 
Yeah, I'd like confirmation from Carrera before I presume and go ahead.

[edit] Ah, the heck with it. [/edit]

No cheating! I didn't have time to d/l this, rename it, and put it back on my host.
 
Nope, It's a Facel Vega Facel II. I used the same picture in the original guess that car thread... I'll dig something else up.
 
Looks quite Jaguar around sides and tail and quite italian around front. Some Ferraris had grilles like that.

Not an easy one.

Wish I'd known something about Facel (Forge et Ateliers de Construction d'Eure et de Loire) Vegas (last of the French luxury car makers, 1962, 6.3litre Chrysler V8 engine, 390 bhp 145mph). It could have been my go again if I had :banghead:
 
Bugger it. I'll post this one instead...
