How about a new round of guess that car?

[911_Carrera]

Ouch.

Forgot about our resident Swede.

Yes it's a Saab Sonnett 3.

I thought everyone would struggle with the concept of a dainty Saab made of fibreglass!



Oops. No it isn't. It's a Sonett 2, in fact. I assumed the 3 was similar but in fact it is quite different - squared and pointy.



Never mind. Your go.

 

[Jugend]

You are getting too accustomed to impossible cars with your darned book.

This might been posted before, but it's all I can come up with now..

 

[Famine]

Looks like a badly modified DeLorean DMC-12 to me. Especially the gullwing doors and the wheels.

 

[Jugend]

Indeed it resembles the DeLorean. But it's not one. This is front-engined.

 

[Famine]

The rear-light clusters scream Nissan/Datsun...

 

[Jugend]

I agree again. The design has been described as a "grown up 240". But stay off that continent

Afaik the car is 100% original.

 

[Famine]

It's not a kit car is it?

 

[Jugend]

No kit car.

[edit] No concept either.

 

[Famine]

Hmm. To coin a phrase "Oh bugger".

 

[Jugend]

The interior is a hint to where it comes from. Or close at least..

 

[Famine]

Oh for ****'s sakes! I skipped over this one last time whilst looking for one to post!

It's a Bricklin SV-1!

 

[Jugend]

Of course it is a Bricklin. I skipped the front view, that one is too revealing. Your go.

 

[Famine]

Should be a toughie...

 

[Famine]

And the back:

 

[Jugend]

I have never seen anything like that. For some reason Renault comes to mind though.

 

[Famine]

The French plate is misleading...

Although you're in the right hemisphere... Ah go on. Right continent.

 

[Jugend]

I'm trying to come up with something from the twin headlights and split grille, but it takes me nowhere.

Is it a production car? The body panels looks to have severe fitting isues.

 

[Axe_Gaijin]

Damnut! I've seen this before!

Triumph Vitesse/Herald Based?

((EDIT Yup, definetly is... that bonnet was a dead give away (the whole front flips forward as with allHerald based models (Spitfire/GT6/Vitesse) now I'll have to narrow it down ))

((EDIT2 GOT IT! It's a Bond Equipe ))

 

[Famine]

Yes, yes and yes, in that order.

But WHICH Bond Equipe - there were four different models, two of which looked like that and two of which didn't...

 

[Axe_Gaijin]

GT4S Convertible

 

[Famine]

Meh. Good enough... Your go...

Oh Ye of little faith

Used to have a Triumph Spitfire 1500 couple years back, so once I saw it was a Trumpet all that was left was dig up some old issues of Triumph World
Axe know Truimph...

Anyhow, this should be easy enough;

 

[911_Carrera]

That will be a Goggomobil



I hope.

 

[Jugend]

I say it's a Jensen.

 

[Axe_Gaijin]

Corectomondo, Gogomobile it is

This particulate car was retro fitted as a EV.
Crazy Californians...

 

[Axe_Gaijin]

A more flattering pic;

 

[bengee]

[Cano]

Cano

 

[911_Carrera]

Quite rare, this beauty.

 

[Famine]

Jensen Interceptor!

(stock first guess these days).
