Now I'm wondering about the foreground. I thought Puma, but they are 'glass, so no rust. Looked at a few Fiats but no match. Dino has similar lines but different details.
I found a matchbox toy Consul Capri when I was a kid and thought that it was a great looking car but have never seen a real one. Did they ever export them over here?
doesn't look like it to me...some have a similar roof line but different fender, others have similar fender but different roof. It's out there somewhere... perhaps Austin Healey 3000?
we've discussed them on the HAMB before, and also some folks pay attention to more cars than we usually see here.
The top kinda favors the Marlin I wonder if AMC borrowed it from the Consul? Like Anthony says “I’d drive it!”
The older car is a Sunbeam-Talbot 90, made in the UK by the Rootes Group, later bought by Chrysler, then sold to Peugeot which means it's in the same trap as Chrysler again (Stelantis)... Those were sold in the US and I think featured on the Photoshop thread (they would make great customs).
One of my favorite vintage Alpha-Romeo's. You all may recognize it from the film, "The Godfather" The "Corleone" name is misspelled. I even made a laminated place-mat out of it.
