Advertisement Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 Hi vanellus, Take a look here Name this car..... I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
stuny Posted July 12, 2014 Share #6562 Posted July 12, 2014 Feels like late '50s - early '60s European. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wlaidlaw Posted July 12, 2014 Share #6563 Posted July 12, 2014 VW 1500 Limousine? Correct make and nearly the right engine size but Limousine? It is generally known by another name and no not “that @£$%^* thing!” Wilson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wlaidlaw Posted July 12, 2014 Share #6565 Posted July 12, 2014 https://www.volkswagen-classic.de/modelle/1500-und-1600 Limousine must mean something very different in German. In English it is a 7 metre long extended white Cadillac, full of drunk girls or stoned rock stars (or both). In English that car is usual called a Type 3 VW notchback 1600. Below is the picture I cropped and the only one of the whole car I can find. Funnily enough, I am following right behind it The driver of the VW is the competitions director of Audi/VW UK. Wilson PS I was joking about it being my next rally car. Welcome, dear visitor!

vanellus Posted July 12, 2014 Share #6566 Posted July 12, 2014 wlaidlaw, in Gemany such a SGT (Stoned-Girl-Transporter) is called "Stretchlimo". Now, let´s try again: It´s a rare item, but easy to guess. (The right one ) Welcome, dear visitor!

Toshack10 Posted July 13, 2014 Share #6567 Posted July 13, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) Wilson You'll know the lovely 74 Carrera that Nick just rebuilt then. Been following the rebuild of that car over on DDK Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wlaidlaw Posted July 13, 2014 Share #6568 Posted July 13, 2014 WilsonYou'll know the lovely 74 Carrera that Nick just rebuilt then. Been following the rebuild of that car over on DDK No I don’t know that one but I will search for it. My brother has a ’73 viper green original 2.7 RS lightweight (ex Frank Sytner) in prefect working order that I was driving a couple of weeks ago. He asked how it compared with my ’77 3.3L RSR. I said the 2.7 Lightweight was like a well brought-up young lady: Sleek, sophisticated and well behaved. My RSR was like a 17 year old hooligan on speed: Fast, noisy, twitchy and needing a very firm hand to control it. Back in the 1970’s, I had the metalflake viper green 2.4 911S that was the 1972 London Motor Show stand car. By the time I got it in 1975, it was a 2.6 Kremer and a real “widow maker” of a car. I sold it some 11 months later before I killed myself in it, having had a few near shaves. I also could not keep up with its immense appetite for rear tyres. The next owner severely damaged himself in the car and wrote it off. Wilson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted July 15, 2014 Share #6569 Posted July 15, 2014 The tires suggest 1970s European. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanellus Posted July 16, 2014 Share #6570 Posted July 16, 2014 European? Yes. Tires? Earlier. Michelin X is a development of the 40s. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wlaidlaw Posted July 16, 2014 Share #6571 Posted July 16, 2014 I think it may be one of the two stroke engined DKW/Auto Unions. Wilson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
