The loopy little microcar is the Suzuki LC from the Tokyo show last week, BTW. Thankfully just a concept at this point, although some early 911 types may be partial to the, um...uniquely retro.. interior. Its in the new Autoweek...

Anybody remember the TV show in the 70's called UFO? That car reminds me of the cars on that show.

tchanson: Not sure what the silver car is, but the red car with the black hash marks next to it: is that a Lancia?

If so, I would venture to guess that the silver one is also a Lancia...

Z,

The red car to the left of the mystery car is an Alfa Montreal, not a Lancia. (If you put your ear close to your monitor, you can likely hear it rusting...)

That's an ASA 1000 gt (64-67), known to some as the "Ferrarina".

Oh Jeeze, I went looking for that one the other day, but couldn't remember the designer's name. The designer is american, and I'm pretty sure it's Ferrari-based.

Rolls Royce with a Merlin engine!
A Rolls Royce 'Special' with a 27 litre, 12 cylinder Merlin engine, as used in the famous World War II Spitfire fighter plane is the latest exhibit at the Haynes International Motor Museum at Sparkford in Somerset.

The Beast was powered by a Rover Meteor engine...the tank version of the Merlin, made by Rover..

The deal was RR took over Rover's jet turbine works and handed over the Merlin....

I wonder who got the best deal..

RR also the owner to court to get him to remove the rad and mascot..as it most certainly was not a Roller.
