What do you win?

 

[Lead_Head]

OcUK bragging rights?

 

[Fett]

No, I mean what do *you* win? It's a competition from somewhere I'm guessing.

 

[Lead_Head]

Nope, it's from a motorshow a few weekends ago, just processing the pictures but I've no idea what they are!

Ahh right, repost them at say 1024x768 and process of elimination should get most of them.

1 looks like a Chevy Impala, 3 looks like an MG TF, 5 is an Austin A35, 6 is a Morris Minor/1100, 8 is a Daimler Dart. That's all I can think of now, if you win, I'd like half of whatever is up for grabs

**EDIT**

Looking at the badge on the first one that says Galaxie, I'll risk saying it's a '59 Ford Galaxie

You're lucky on the Cadillac. Nearly every Caddy from about 1940 to 1955 had bonnets that looked like that. The '41 had that badge though: http://www.stationaryengine.org/Rallies_2008/Aldham/cadillac_aldham_2008.jpg

All the rest had vee's on the bonnet.

Number 1 is not a Chevrolet Impala (one of my favourite cars as it happens) it's a late 1950s Ford Galaxie Fairlane.

 

[Janesy B]

You didn't see my edit earlier this morning then

 

[Moeks]

Oh no I didn't Jansey, sorry ...to be absolutely specific then it's a 1959 Ford Galaxie Fairlane, the first incarnation of the Galaxie was based on the longer running Fairlane, it was 1959 specifically when this shape was about, it was redesigned from 1958 which had quite different rear lights ...and 1960 saw a totally new car and I think the name Fairlane was dropped from the Galaxie then too. This one has to be a 1959 therefore, as it says Galaxie and has the very distinctive Fairlane rear light clusters.

Great stuff fellas, thanks for your help

If anyone knows any further details please let me know.

Number 1 is not a Chevrolet Impala (one of my favourite cars as it happens) it's a late 1950s Ford Galaxie Fairlane.

Correct. '59 Galaxie

This is a '59 Impala:

#2 1941 Cadillac

#5 is an Austin A30 (1950's)

#6 Morris Minor (Quite obviously)

The rest are cack

 

[Bill101]

#5 could be an austin A35 (van)
#8 says it's a Daimler, so it could be the plastic bodied Dart


oops
Just seen Janesy B 's posting !

My mate has worked in the AA for about 8 years, in his handbook, it says everytime an AA employee sees a car with the winged AA badge in picture #5, they're supposed to salute the car as it passes!
