Identify Me - NEW on p8

[vulgalour 36,616]

mmm minty.

What differentiates it as an Imperial.  It looks to be missing the trim that identifies between Imperial, Hawk and Supersnipe.

5 is a '55 Chevy Nomad.

 

9 is a Zuk, I think Sam Glover has/had one?

 

And 10 is a '59 Chevy Impala.

[vulgalour 36,616]

Thank you!  I don't know why I couldn't remember 5 and I think the angle was throwing me off for 10.

 

9 is indeed a Żuk made by FSC, and is Polish.  That's one I didn't know or had forgotten if someone told me.

[barrett 7,970]

Number seven is a 1933 Hupmobile

[barrett 7,970]

And yes, the Pontiac is a Pontiac - a 59 or 60 Catalina.

 

The Chevrolet is a Chevrolet, too - a 1938 Master. And also everything I dislike in a custom car summed up in one image

[Junkman 108,766]

6 is this 1960 Pontiac Catalina Lowrider:

 

[vulgalour 36,616]

Thanks you two!  I wouldn't have got the Hupmobile in a million years.  Is the Pontiac the same model that Lesney/Matchbox did in convertible form?  It suddenly seems familiar now you've pointed out the year, weirdly.

 

The Master is a handsome car in stock trim too, I can see why the custom version causes offense.  Much harder to find unmolested pictures of them than modified ones too. (I know this one's a 2 door but it's close enough for this example).

[Junkman 108,766]

2 is a Travco Motorhome.

[vulgalour 36,616]

Looks like it sits right on the 69/70 year border too now I know what to look for.  Surprisingly, the addition of the Transit bits doesn't make it look worse, just different.  Not a looker.

[vulgalour 36,616]

Just had a chance internet find: https://www.flickr.com/photos/[email protected]/8408182299  which is exactly the same bus going by reg, trim details and colour.  It's a Bedford Plaxton Embassy III.  Was looking for something entirely different too, so that was a stroke of luck.

mmm minty.

 

What differentiates it as an Imperial.  It looks to be missing the trim that identifies between Imperial, Hawk and Supersnipe.

The only noticeable exterior difference between Super Snipe and Imperial (apart from the door badging) is the black Everflex roof (posh vinyl) on the Imperial.

 

Hawks vs. the other two are easier of course due to the single headlights and smaller grille.

[Rod/b 1,550]

4 is an Alexander Dash bodied Dennis Dart

[quicksilver 5,040]

4 is an Alexander Dash bodied Dennis Dart

Right body, wrong chassis - this one is a Volvo B6. Note the lack of grille at the offside rear as the B6 engine is the other way round.

[Rod/b 1,550]

oh yeah

[Rod/b 1,550]

Here it is under its old rego https://www.flickr.com/photos/theoriginalzippy/3845927342/in/[email protected]/

[vulgalour 36,616]

That's the last one ID'd, great work chaps!  New round coming up.  Much older stuff this time and I've some idea on makes, just not models.

[vulgalour 36,616]

1 - 1915-ish Chevrolet Model H (cheers Mercrocker).

The curved bottom on the windscreen seems to have been on the earlier cars, but the rest of the features line up well with the Model H to my untrained eye, so unless someone has a better suggestion, I'll go with that.

 

2 - Riley?

- 1938 Riley 12/4 Kestrel (cheers FPB7 and Barrett)

 

3 - 1920 Dodge Tourer (cheers mercrocker)

 

4 - I know what the one on the right is, but what's the one on the left with the tiny headlights?

- 1928 Trojan Three Door (cheers FPB7 and Barrett)

 

5 - Riley on the left, same as 2?  No idea for the one on the right.

- mid-30s Riley Nine Kestrel (cheers Barrett)

- Healey Tickford Sports Saloon (cheers FPB7 and chaseracer)

 

6

on left - Jowett Jason (cheers Mercrocker)

on right- Armstrong Siddeley (cheers FPB7).  I'm thinking it's a Salmson, but I'm not sure on that, there's a few body variations that all look similar with different names.

 

7 - Nissan D21 King Cab (cheers for the help, DVee8)

 

8 - 1960 GMC Panel Van (cheers Mercrocker)

 

9 - 1928ish Morris Cowley (cheers FPB7 and Barrett).  Now I also know what people mean when they say a "Morris Flatnose", as opposed to a Bullnose.

 

10 - badge hints at the Lancia flag to my eye, but the car is completely unfamiliar to me.

- Lancia Lambda (cheers chaseracer)

[DVee8 14,136]

No7 looks like a Nissan terrano 1

 

 

 

 

Edit scratch that looks like Nissan navara king cab

 

[vulgalour 36,616]

Close... used it as a starting point and I think it's actually a mid-80s Nissan D21 King Cab, like this.  It's got the same up-and-over window to the cab back.

 

 

 

EDIT: here's one with what looks to be the same bed-top too.

[chaseracer 17,721]

10 is a Lancia Lambda

[Inspector Morose 8,006]

4. Trojan I think.

5. Could it be a Healey?

9. Morris Cowley.

6. Looks like an Amstrong Siddeley.

2. Riley Kestrel

 

Pass on the others.

[cort1977 2,229]

Gah, beaten to it on the garish Nissan and that was the only one I had a clue about sadly.

[chaseracer 17,721]

5 is indeed a gloriously-named Healey Tickford Sports Saloon.

[mercrocker 18,838]

blue and cream car next to the Armstrong Siddeley (6) is a Jowett, possibly a Jason.

[mercrocker 18,838]

No.8 - 1960 GMC Panel van 

[mercrocker 18,838]

No.1 is possibly a 1919 Chevrolet but I am a bit out of my comfort zone with this era!

[barrett 7,970]

2 is a 1938 Riley 12/4 Kestrel

 

4 is a 1928 Trojan three-door

 

5, the Riley is Nine Kestrel I think

 

9 is a circa 1928 Morris Cowley

[artdjones 1,525]

Yesterday's no 1 is a Bedford SB13 with Leyland O.370 diesel engine.

[artdjones 1,525]

No 5 Today,a Healey Tickford Sports Saloon.

[vulgalour 36,616]

I'll go through and update accordingly when I'm on break proper but searching for Jowett Jason images brought up lots of very athletic men in underpants.  I am not complaining.  So there's that.
