Vintage & Classic Cars

Kariba · #1 10-01-2012, 03:58 AM

I have loved cars from the days when I was too young to understand that women have more tactile charms.

This thread attempts to mix the two topics and throw in a quiz. Please try to identify the cars. I'll give it a go, but my knowledge is full of holes, particularly in relation to newer machinery.

If you want to answer the quiz or post pix on topic, please jump in.

2 is a 1963 Jaguar E type
3 is a 1967 Chrysler Valiant
4 is a 1967 Alfa Romeo Guilietta
5 is a 2010 Mustang
6 is a 1947 Ford
7 is a 1961 Renault Floride
8 is a 1964 Citroen 2CV

To me that looks more like 59ish buick with the rear made into a pick-up bed, Austrailian ute? Cool post.

I think 7 is a Renault Dauphine....Floride was more sporty.

Thank you for your interest, gentlemen.

I've corrected pic 9 to a 59 Buick and of course, as Voy points out, the Renault is a Dauphin

Time to post a few more, but stock is limited and will run out in a few more posts. To make things a little slicker, I have put my guess into the photo name.

Comments and corrections are always welcome and I'd be delighted if anybody added some pics to the thread.

that blue one is definately a renault twingo(would you just look at the boobs on her!!!) but as for the rest, i'm stumped.

The Alfa is not a Giulietta but a much later (early-80's) 105-series Spyder,
Giulietta nomenclature having been dropped in about 1963-4.

A few car pics from me, now. My internet is moving at the speed of an Argentinian glacier, so I'll only post five pics each time in case it drops out mid-post. Here goes.

No 1 is a 1928 Dodge
No 2 is a 1947 Plymouth
No 3 is a 1956 Cadillac
No 4 is a 1963 Jaguar E type
No 5 is a 1972 Cadillac.

As always, these are guesses, not facts. Corrections and comments are welcome. Your posts are even more welcome.
