Car over the bluff - identify
What is this, Fairlane coupe? On a mountain bike ride yesterday on some trails below a road called High Drive. There are a few cars down here.

Definitely not a mustang or a cougar. I've owned a few mustangs of that era. The nose is longer, the whole car is bigger.

It is tough:
-hard to gauge the size of the car from the photo -it appears to be a post coupe (looks like it has a fairly substantial B-pillar and a very small rear quarter window) but it is hard to tell whether that is sheetmetal or, say, a tree. -looks intermediate-to-large, American, late 60s to maybe late 70s. C-pillar area vaguely resembles aero 'Birds but nothing else does - windshield header and lower body surfacing all indicate much older. -The whole greenhouse is the confounding bit as seen in the picture. -I think the crowned line on the front fender and door is the most distinctive identifying element, but it's hard to pin that down.

No idea about the car but I have some ideas about the tires.
Good tires, but certainly not great tires

What, you couldn't get off your bike and walk over a bit closer?
