How do you do it Ken,as you spot on

To be honest I thought it was the Phantom so figured Will had it.  It was only last night when I went back for another look that I looked for photos of the Phantom, which lead me to photos of the Ghost.....

Here\'s a nice red job:

got to be a bond equipe?

got to be a bond equipe?

Guess I showed a little too much:).
Yes it is of course the Equipe....over to you jinx

[jinx]

Sorry - I guess and then forget to check back!

The design is so well known, this is easier than it looks at first glance, plus it includes a handy link to both the last one and the last one I did.

I\'m expecting KenD back by return - there\'s an additional virtual cigar in it for you sir for spelling out the links mentioned above!

Triumph Dolomite - the original version?

[jinx]

Well done Ken...a winner...but I\'ll put you down as a non-smoker as you weren\'t tempted by the additional virtual cigar!  

In case anyone was still puzzling: If joined up, the other dots linked the Triumph running gear under the skin of Ken\'s Bond Equipe with Donald Healey, the lead engineer at Triumph on the Dolomite project - fifteen or so years before he put his name to that badge engineered Nash in an Italian suit that was my last!

PS It looks better as a tourer (most things do!) but the picture was handy

Very nice

Thanks jinx - and a correct deduction!
Nice challenge.

Another big radiator grille to consider.

A Chrysler Imperial? (36-38?)

I had three strong candidates straight off - all of them wrong so it was down to Google this time I\'m afraid.  Were you a fan already or find it looking for waterfall grilles LOL?

That will do...the Chrysler Airflow Imperial from 1937.

Intrigued....what were your other candidates?  Not a big fan, but I figured one good turn etc....

[jinx]

Nice find anyway Ken - a confusing time at Chrysler!  All those slope fronted Airflows, Imperials with and without the split grille and/or different headlight designs allegedly from the same year - then by 39 everything has changed and they are off with their two step front end that is pretty much the defining look of the period.  They seemed to switched the grille design from horizontal to vertical from model to model, year to year...Dammit...a googler\'s nightmare!

First thought we might still be at home with one of those \'racy\' post war, Abbot Hillmans. Once noticed though, that light detailing was far too fancy - suggesting France or America.  A Fiat in a fancy French clothes?  No...I went for the US - wanting it to be a Hudson or maybe a Zephyr - special or otherwise but...

Enough...No more running boards I promise (Only KenD seems to get them!) Here is something I always wanted but never got to own…and now probably never will!  

That list is so long it\'s no clue at all, I\'ll add more if it stalls.

Old Porsche, before 911. Dont remember what was it called...

That would be the Porsche 356...in this case the 1600 Coupe I think?

Jinx, yes the number of style changes at Chrysler in those few years was amazing, certainly by todays standards.  Still it certainly must have provided for some variety on the roads then!

Ah, a nice selection....will see if I can oblige in future challenges!  I recall an acquaintance of mine in the US used to own a classic Hudson Commodore.  He is now sadly departed, but I wonder what happened to the car?
