Name The Car

[Brett]

That looks like a reproduction E-type wossit?

[jinx]

Kodiak has it right...and the floor!

But for my money it\'s still fugly from the side.  The glass does not look like it belongs tucked up above that high waist.  Still, just me obviously!:rollin

[jinx]

If the second pic was your go Kodiak.
Cheetah?

[Kodiak]

Correct Jinx.
 
Damn that was fast.
 
EDIT: No really... The pic was awful! The Angle doesn\'t show the most distinctive features of the car (sitting on the diff for instance), no badge was shown... How, by the power of Greyskull, did you guess that?

[jinx]

Because I (like you?) had a model of one as a kid!  They fetch fantastic money in the US but are not well known here...except possibly by boys who resist growing up!

I think the fact that everything I once dreamed of owning is now the preserve of city boys or lottery winners, has changed the old car scene for the worse.  Time was when a knackered old race car was just a knackered old race car not an instant investment opportunity.  Of course back then, if you bought one it would still have been knackered...but it would have been your knackered old race car! :evillaugh

And now for something completely different, although like the Cheetah it is a child of the sixties... Another foreigner, another forgotten make swallowed by another name...one that is everywhere you look these days.

Asa 1000 Gt?

[jinx]

You\'re back...excellent!  

Technically you\'re wrong...there\'s no wing vent...but I bet these two are near identical from this angle.  Asa such a knowing \'guess\' too because Italian ideas do sometimes wind up in photocopiers and who\'s to say how many good ones Bertone had in an average year.

You\'re travelling in absolutely the right area...wrong country. Think about the name \'that is everywhere\' and you\'ll be there.

Looks like a 911 thats been hit with a plank of wood to flatten the curves

Ok in that case it must be a Glas 1300/1700 gt? I did spot that it didn\'t have the wing vents but didn\'t have time to look in to it much further.
Had I seen the Gorden keeble type front it would have made it a bit easier.

[jinx]

Glas 1700 it is...
You were AWOL or I bet you\'d have got the Invicta straight off! :Thumbsup!  

It\'s even money I won\'t ever have heard of whatever your next is. :wave

Yup busy in the New Year but I don\'t think the Invicta would have been on the tip of my tongue anyhow:2Confused.
Let\'s see how you get on with this one, I think it\'s either you’ve seen it before and know it straight away or you haven’t and don’t:)

[jinx]

Put me down as a "haven\'t and don\'t"

[Kodiak]

Devon GTX?

[Brett]

That is very nice - but again, outside my field of knowledge!

[Casey]

Put me down as a "haven\'t and don\'t"

Ditto - I thought I had a reasonable knowledge of cars, but this thread has demonstrated how little I really know :2Confused:)

Very impressed by knowledge of others though!
