Another vote for a Trans Am Firebird, or failing that, the same vintage Camaro (Z28?).  Late 1970s to early 1980s.

Trans-Am / Pontiac Firebird?  Not sure of year though...

You are both 100% correct with Pontiac Trans-Am Firebird, Graham and Stuny.

As far as I'm concerned you have both 'won' but, just for fun'n'giggles, as far as year goes I'll leave these two images;

OK, as far as I can tell it's a '79 but I can't narrow it down further without speaking to the owner and I'm off to the Ile d'Oleron today and will have no internet access for a week so will gladly accept either of Graham or Stuny's answers.

 

Over to one of you!

 

Pip.

[stuny]

Graham - All yours.

[Graham (G4FUJ)]

You go first Stuart. I have taken one or two shots on Sunday, just for this thread. I'll sort out upload in the next couple of days.

Unfortunately, sad news at home means I have a lot of other things to do chasing paperwork and arrangements of a deeply personal nature.

[stuny]

Graham -

 

I hope it all settles out well.I'll add a car tomorrow evening.

Actually, it's only fair that Graham goes next.  Please have patience as Graham sorts out some issues - We'll see an interesting puzzle car from him soon.

[Graham (G4FUJ)]

Thanks Stuart.

 

OK, here's the next one. Might be a couple of days before I can reveal. It's one of two cars spotted at a couple of events last Sunday, the other one I suspect may be much harder...

 

(Apologies for not having had time to compress it).

Looks like the tail of 1st Series Alfa Romeo Spider from the 60's.

[Graham (G4FUJ)]

Well, that didn't last long!

 

Complete car, v. late 60s:

 

 

All yours Arto for the next one

[stuny]

In the US it was sold as the "Duetto."  The last Alfa sold here until recently was the Kamm tailed "The Graduate" version, as Benjamin drives in The Graduate.

Thanks Graham, it was my dream car as teenager, hard to forget.

 

The lady is sure happy to see me, but what is the dark blue car behind her back?

What a relief.  I was afraid she was backing into the car at speed.

 

I'm guessing European, between luxury and economy, perhaps something like a VW CC

[AZach]

Hello Stuart,

 

European but not VW. This brand tried to establish its own market segment by pioneering innovative features.

Citroen? Peut-etre?

[AZach]

Desole, mais non.

 

Salutations,

Volvo?

[AZach]

Hello Andreas,

 

not Volvo but getting closer. The pictured model/version was the last of its kind.

 

Regards,

 

Arto
