Junkman Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 La merde Japonnais is creeping into Agon-Coutainville, but it's still outnumbered by Rosbiff chod. Some sophisticated animal torture is going on in Aigues-Mortes: This is in Ainhoa, wherever that is. There's not really a lot going on in Alencon. pshome, hennabm, mercrocker and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayMK Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 What is the black two door saloon in the first one, which is making the GS behave like a scared cat? Can't help with the ferry to Venice, but I am really enjoying these continental motoring scenes from 40-60 years ago. The only old postcard I've got is a 1980s reprint of a much earlier postcard - Isle of Wight and all pre-WW2 cars. I'll add it later when found.

Junkman Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Do you mean in Agon-Coutainville? The black car sneaking into the pic from the right? Behind the white R6? I think it's one of those: RayMK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pshome Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 This is in Belgium, but I don't know where: This is at Kooigem they have the greasiest "Fritures" of all Belgium, i am sure the postcard still drips oil.https://beeldbank.kortrijk.be/erfgoed/index.php/image/watch/a44a1e41982f4264aed977c89a1794e8f77cd6d20f6f4bdd882482b6f4e433dfq0e52k6fsa74u7jsqiloovikm2xszfpb?s=5a83387ea8c32&c=3&tab=objectlocation Junkman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's one of those: 'Liked' because I had not realised that you'd posted more before the one I was referring to - which I might have missed entirely if you hadn't suggested the Audi which I could not remember seeing anywhere. The saloon that I can't identify is on the first postcard, bottom left, of post number 618. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martc Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I always thought shops were open in France only between 1940 and 1944. Unlike the rest of Europe where many were shut 'for the duration'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayMK Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint. Yes! I've never seen one from that angle before.....and only ever seen one in the flesh. Books tend to picture them at ground level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkman Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 VibrayeRonce les BainsSèteGrimaldi don't you have something challenging? Nope. Now identify the cars going Veniceward. And I don't mean the obvious ones, like the Ardea, Traction and Fiat 1100.I think this is a batch of special bodied cars going to an exhibition.

NorfolkNWeigh Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 The Triumph in Armentieres is the far more upmarket 1300, possibly a TC from the badge on the wing. Junkman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pshome Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 The convertible has the same dashboard with the two center dials and the big knob in the middle as the 1952 Lancia B52 Aurelia PF200 Spider, but its not one. So whatever this car is, Pinin stole the dials from it for the PF200. http://fristcenter.org/misc/1952-lancia-b52-aurelia-pf200-spider mercrocker and Junkman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
