Judging by the parking, I think they all were....

[adw1977]

Dublin, postmarked 1965.

 

[Junkman]

Ellis Beach, Queensland.

 

 

That pic must have been taken when the Australians started to kill off their car industry.

[JeeExEll]

^ Mk1 pre-facelift. Twin tailpipes on single box, maybe.

I like that Type 3 estatewaggen too.

 

But who cares, look at the view and open the beers!

NIce to see they got Fern Green down there, too....

It wouldn't be Australia, if that weren't what you are relegated to on a beach.

Schonach im Schwarzwald.

 

 

Looks like a Dutch registered Landcrab.

 

The hotel was later converted to an appartment building.

There was a fire last year:

Most, if not all, of those cars would have been Aussie built. Heaps of car manufacturers had Aussie factories, most of which died in the 1990s, sadly they will all be dead by 2020.

That Dutch land crab is a Maxi.  Land scampi?

Feldkirch, Austria

 

[Junkman]

 

This could be my Renno.

I know, it isn't, but it could be.

[sheffcortinacentre]

That red 2 Dr gel mk3 cortina is a rarity.

[pshome]

Don't we all remember that annoying "R16 parking only" sign outside the Moulin Rouge.

 

 

 

The place became so much more presentable when they switched to "504 parking only" after the owners of the place complained to the city.

What is the sporty car parked in front of the Piaggio?

 

,, that blue thing? Ford Thunderbird?

[Junkman]

I think the car in front of the Ape is an MGA.

And yes, Thunderbird, but a 1956, not a 1955 like Delcampe suggests.

That London, last Thursday:

 

[Junkman]

Not that London:

 

[Junkman]

Dunkeld, Volvoshire:

 

[FakeConcern]

Spotted on display at the De La Warr Pavilion

 

 

[Junkman]

Holland, Kingdom of Shite.

In this case, it's Noordwijk aan Zee.

 

 

There isn't a thing in this card I wouldn't would.

Note especially the rare Rallye (sic) B Kadett up by the zebra crossing.

[mercrocker]

There's an example of the other type of Kadett B Coupe there too.    Noice.

[Spottedlaurel]

BMW '02s appear to be popular.

 

What's the white coupe with twin round rear lights, just behind the lamp post? I don't think Opel GT or Mazda R100, possibly Fiat or SImca?

[chaseracer]

Viva HA, front row...?

It is an Opel GT.....

Algiers.

 

 

How did they manage to buy cars from the French?

Do any of these postcards have stuff written on them or are they pics taken from random sites?

[pshome]
