Rona!d Posted September 16, 2021 Share #16084 Posted September 16, 2021 I‘m abroad so I‘ll leave the rest to others. There are 60s models and XCs to check. And not to forget the 4WD Country version of my guess above (I would opt for) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pippy Posted September 16, 2021 Share #16088 Posted September 16, 2021 Thank you, Luigi. Going back to something a bit more 'vintage' this time. I hasten to add that this is not my car......

luigi bertolotti Posted September 16, 2021 Share #16089 Posted September 16, 2021 An Alfa of the '70s ? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pippy Posted September 16, 2021 Share #16090 Posted September 16, 2021 (edited) The timeframe is right (straddled the late '70s and early '80s) but not an Alfa. I'll be quite lenient as far as exact model-number is concerned as there was a huge number of detail differences produced on different vehicles from different years and for different markets. I'll post another snap! Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! Philip. Philip.

thomasstellwag Posted September 16, 2021 Share #16091 Posted September 16, 2021 (edited) looks quite much as a Datsun Sunny 120 I guess Edited September 16, 2021 by thomasstellwag 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn´t sure when Volvo renamed the Cross Country into XC and switched the number and letters from V70 XC (X=Cross, C=Country) into XC 70. From the dash-design I had the same car in mind. Had not many test cars from Volvo, mainly the stylish small ones I liked and the old C70 Cabriolet (UNDERESTIMATED coming classic, too many people are hyping the SAAB cabriolets). 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This particular vehicle is actually badged as a Datsun 120Y but, as I mentioned earlier, each market had slightly different 'needs' and it was known as a Sunny in some countries.

thomasstellwag Posted September 16, 2021 Share #16094 Posted September 16, 2021 (edited) the locked tank door and the antennna showed Japanese design - the Datsun/Nissan series 240-280 series was wonderful I have to look what I can find in my area Edited September 16, 2021 by thomasstellwag 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few of my clients are in the antiques world and the Volvo estates have always been a bit of a running joke as so many dealers have used them over the decades. One of 'mine' lives out in the sticks and has just such a car to cope with the winters here but I admit I wasn't terribly up on when the name-change happened myself. Very capable performers!

Rona!d Posted September 16, 2021 Share #16096 Posted September 16, 2021 It would take me an evening of research how MY personal japanese classic car collection would look like (except a Toyota 2000 GT Coupe, the 2000 GT Bond convertible, Datsun Z 240/260 along with the Mazda 110 Cosmo and early Celicas and tiny hot Honda chaindriven coupes/roadsters) Would be fun to think about though. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly would! Funny you mention the 240Z, Ronald; when I was in my early-mid teens these beasts (in the link below) were very much at the heart of things and, after they had hung up their race-numbers, were frequently featured in the likes of 'Classic and Sporstcar' and 'Thoroughbred and Classic Car' magazines; https://www.samurimotorcompany.com/history-of-samuri-motor-company I've always had a soft spot for the Honda S800 coupe's myself (and have shown at least one in this very thread!).

thomasstellwag Posted September 16, 2021 Share #16098 Posted September 16, 2021 I know the brand and a circa date of built, but I need our classic racing car group to define the type.

wlaidlaw Posted September 16, 2021 Share #16099 Posted September 16, 2021 The headlight is a Lucas P100 type, so the car is probably British. Other than that it could be almost any late 20's or early 30's higher powered sports car (big brakes). Maybe an Alvis, Talbot or Aston Martin.
