"Name That Car" game
 

A couple of us hijacked the "random pics" thread earlier this week, so I figured I'd sart a new one.

Here are the rules: I post a pic of a car. The person who correctly identifies it gets to post the next pic.

Also, if you correctly identify a car, then post a pic, please check in to verify if anyone has correctly identified the car you've posted. Don't leave us hanging!

The rules are very simple, so the first person to get them confused has to give me their car.

Let's start with an easy one:

Harold? Paul? I would definately have named it George.

With an ass like that, I would have given it a female name, but hey, whatever floats your boat...

EDIT: **identifies**





smartasses

Stella?

Kinda little wide and a bit pale. Holy *****, that could be my wife's rear!

Man, I could get into trouble for that one!

Ouch! You better clear your history when yer done with the computer!

250 GT SWB.

Are there any rules, by the way?


Tim

no way you freaking got that!

OK hotshot, name the year and the color code?

Abarth?

We have a winner!

nevermind Tim's got it

Frankly, Stella would have been better.

Ferrari California something or another?

I see a Pininfarina badge....

That's the car from Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Something like a 250 GT California Spyder.

More clues
 

Its not a California Spyder, and Pininfarina was not involved...


Tim

It does look like it has a 250 front end. But then back then many of the cars had similar front ends.

maserati?

From this angle the engine layout reminds me of an Alfa. But I don't recall seeing tail lamps like that on an AR.

Similar to a Maserati 3500gt, but missing the fender side vents...


:confused:

Rolls-Royce? (Guess based mostly on the taillights and trunk shapes)

Fiat

Some kind of one-off Lancia...

That'll count as a winner. http://www.pelicanparts.com/support/smileys/wat.gif

Its a '57 Maserati 2000 GS Spyder that was in a concours I participated in a few months ago. I've seen it several times, but am always amazed by the little details.

One of 12 built, alloy bodied by Frua. A quite stunning car in person.

Incidentally, there was also a beautiful, covered headlight '57 250 California Spyder at the same event:

You got the next photo, 911-m5...

Tim

Porsche lanyard in a Ferrari?

For some reason, I think the Maserati looks better than the Ferrari.

Like the difference between an Italian girl from Sicily, or Central Italy or Northern Italy. All beautiful but as different as Lambo's vs. Ferraris vs. Maseratis - all six can run hot, be tempermental and after they put you through the paces your never the same and anything else you slip into will always be compared to the Italian wondrment.

Where's 911- m5 with the next pic? I say we give him an hour, then I choose which of his cars I get to take.

Love the fire extinguisher wheel chock.

Way to long, this thread almost made it to page 2. Try this one guys!

Sorry, I reposted it to add a rear shot and to erase the emblems on the car and dates on the plates.

It's not a wheel chock, a lot of shows require a fires extinguisher at one of the wheels.

Sorry it took so long guys. I don't have a desk job. :(
Here it is though if you still want to guess.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1131152700.jpg

Is that a Cord White 79 911?

Oh yeah,

I have a side view of the mystery car if the front pic proves to be too hard.

Austin Healy interceptor?

Nope - not English

Nope not a Cord. It is made in the US by a company that no longer exists.

Looks like some sort of modified Corvair.

1941 Nash Ambassador?

Not American either.

Very Stinking Good!!!!

1941 Nash Ambassador Six.

How did you get it so easy?

Hehe. I have my methods.
