Okay, here's an easy one.

Bucky Fuller's Dymaxion Car, to go with the house.


A fatal accident stymied the invention of the Dymaxion car.
The patented 1937, Dymaxion car was intended to later fly, when suitable alloys and engines became available.
As a car, it averaged 30 miles per gallon.
The Dymaxion car carried eleven passengers.
A smaller five-passenger Dymaxion car was made in 1943.
The Dymaxion car speed along at 120 miles per hour.

Anzures, is that the Renault Talisman concept? Is the car you posted a French car?

I suppose there are a few more obscure cars in my collection of show images... but here's one that's pretty interesting:

Correct...this was car #3 of 3, pictured at the 1934 Chicago World's Fair. 20 ft. long, could turn in it's own length, 1,000 lbs, and powered by a Ford Flathead V-8.

Some pretty cool video clips, click on the pictures:

Ya'know, after seeing that Otto Vu in grey with the yellow accents on the fenders, it's harder to care what that innocuous '80's/'90's red concept thing is.

I gotta fever.

And the only prescription is more Fiat Otto Vu ...

I agree. Like the Ferrari 250SWB, car design doesn't get much nicer than this. Rather than reinvent the wheel with the new Z4 and Cayman with their 'beauty bulges', give me a new one of these.

Some piece of work for 1954..

or this Aceca Bristol 63-64??

You have got to be kidding me. Porsche would have been my last guess. LOL.

Does any know what this is?

Fiat 2300 series.

I would say early 60's due to the lack of sidetrim that would extend from the fender vent on later 60's cars. (Though the trim could easily be removed.)

Powered by an inline 6 cylinder.

that was quick. My grandfather owned this 2300S for almost forty years, and it is now in my uncle's garage. Over 250.000 miles on the clock and it still runs. Engine picture:
