Possibly an Mg or Morgan too. You're right though, and except for the Studebaker pretty much everything else is Ford or GM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeeExEll Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 The last 3 cars are Jean-Pierre Wimille Prototypes from the late 1940s. With mid-mounted Citroen 1.9 litre or Ford / Simca flathead V8 2.2. Less than 10 cars built. JPW was a racing driver, killed in an accident on the track in 1949. egg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeeExEll Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 WTF is it? The 1974 Renner BRV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeeExEll Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 What's this? Some old fucked looking French thing? It's a Renner 20 / 30 prototype pictured in 1975, altered and deliberately 'scruffed down'. A cunning disguise, although many looked like this by the early 80s. adw1977, DSdriver, Shep Shepherd and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheffcortinacentre Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Brv looks to have bits of 9 & 18 in it. The ford corcel is south American & Reno 12 underpinning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeeExEll Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 83-86 Ford US LTD. Definitely nothing like a GM Senator. Any resemblance was purely co-incidental. Some had the 2.3 Pinto 'Lima' four, all had auto trans. Top spec was a 165bhp 5-litre but a 3.3 'Thriftpower' six was available too. The name Thriftpower sets alarm bells ringing in my head. Urban roadtests achieved 16.5mpg from the 2.3 litre four. vulgalour 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
