If #6 is not a Studebaker Lark, it must be a 1965/66 Studebaker when the Lark name was dropped. Being a taxi I'd say it's most probably a Six Commander.

#3 Caparo T1

Can you be more specific?

#3 Caparo T1 Police car.  There was a Caparo Police car, but the light bar was solid (not 3 individual lights) and this one does not seem to have the proper paint scheme for a police car. 

I'll leave it for Quiller.

Caparo T1 RRV (Rapid Response Vehicle), conceived as a pursuit car rather than a police car.

I'd say it was called Starlight... But the credits should go to Allemano.

Actually, I believe you both right. As pictured above, the car was called the 'Skylight'. When Pininfarina fitted the car with a glass roof, it was re-christened 'Starlight'.
