Hey, bug.... those pictures are yuge!!

A couple of people seem to know what the maroon wedge car is.
In 1972, Sam Foose, father of Chip Foose, used a DeTomaso Pantera as the basis for creating a "clone" of an Alfa Romeo Carabo. It was offered for sale several times in 2014 and 2015. It was featured on Fast n Loud (Gas Monkey Garage) in 2016, and is currently listed for for the Mecum auction in February.

Something different:

Ok.
Totally confused now.
There was a one of a kind kit-car looking thing posted about a year ago. I think this one posted by cashflyer is it - again, but chopped off the top?

It was not related to an Aztec-7 much to my surprise, if I recall correctly.

Here's mine in 1961 - Don't know if the scanned pic will be big enough to see very well. It was after I wrecked my car & this was what I could afford. I was embarrassed to be seen driving it. Now I think I'd be pretty cool. This was in Fresno, CA one of the only times it ever snowed. Nash Metropolitan. My girlfriend referred to it an my Cosmopolitan.
