Twenty cars in "near mint" condition.
I took a couple of easy ones and a bunch of rather difficult!
Are you man enough to identify them? :D (I'm quite sure there will be enough left for Professionals.)
As usual one point for each.
Points will awarded when everything's cleaned up!

You're correct on NM_04 and on NM_18, but NM_16 is not the Gilbern T-11 (I suppose you've meant that;))
Expertise!
Number 1 - My friend and now saved ,,,1963 Willys Capeta ( Devil in english )
Number 12 - Panther Lazer
Yes and Yes! :)
Number 10 - 1956 Mercedes-Benz 300 by Ghia
Number 13- 1965 Zagato OSCA MV 1700 GTZ Spyder
correct again!
If possible do not edit you guesses, but post new ones. Otherwise it's a little chaotic to follow the score. ;)
Number 3 - 1948 Bentley Cresta MK VI by Facel Farina

:)
I've the name 'Familiare' instead of 'Giardinetta', but it's the same car you have in mind I guess.
Is Number 17 a Sipani Montana?
Number 8 - Fiat OSCA 1500 Coupé by Michelotti.
Yes,I almost put Familiare,but I found this catalog pic.

NM_05 - Lotus Europa
NM_11 - Jaguar E-Type Coupe special (can't remember the coachbuilder / body maker but I'll have a name tonight, as soon as I get to my DB)

One of the first guesses was NM_05 = Lotus Elan, but I have to repeat that it's not the correct answer.
It's indeed a Jaguar, but not an E-Type special...
Would Maserati Khamsin be too easy for #16?
One of the best puzzles I've seen for ages. Well done. ;D Here's my small contribution to some answers;
NM05: Hispano-Aleman Castilla
NM09: Isuzu Bellel
NM16: Lamborghini Urraco
NM19: Toro Coupe (VW-based, made in the Philipines)

Totally right! NM11 is the Jaguar XK120 John Blythe Coupé!! Duuuuh! ;D

That would be too easy.. ;)
Not too many left for Pros, but guess they will clean up the remaining four.
I think that NM15 might be a Seat 600 with Milton body.

Very close, but no! Not this one...
#16 MC2 by Francisco Ejarque
I knew you know this! :thumbsup:
Do you know if it ever was completed? It must have been a great looking car!
The hardest one is already solved I guessed! :-\
I looked in the site where this car was shown but it is not been updated since June 2007.. :-\ and this was the last stage:
Yes it's from the same source I have. I couldn't figure out if this is a restauration project of a formerly completed car or if it never was finished.. ???
And number #15 is the 1966 Seat 600 made by Corver-Serra! ;D ;D

Correct!
Is the missing one Spanish?
Which one? There are still two cars unsolved.
#9 , because I think #2 is a rebodied Simca, or something like that.
Maybe you're a little upset now, but to be honest: neither #9 nor #2 are from Spain. ;D
BTW: #2 is not a rebodied Simca or something like that..
Perfect!
Is #9 from Japan?
Or is there a link between #9 and BMC ? Somehow it looks like being based on a Farina model (Oxford/cambridge)...
Not from GB and no Farina connection. (in any way)
Maybe a connection with Glas or BMW?
Not that...
sorry, not Japanese!
Number 9 is argentinian?
Not Argentinian..
Number #2 is a Radovitch Peugeot?
Number #9 is Italian?
#2 is not a Radovitch Peugeot, but it's at least from one of the french speaking countries...
#9 is not Italian, but at least an Italian designer was involved...
;)
about car#9: If you're not only car-orientated this might be a BIG hint for you..
and for car #2 another view may interest you

A griffin logo? Vauxhall?

#9 - Hansa 1100?
you're almost there...
I was afraid of that...
Well is it an Hansa, and the last known model was a 1100...but I see it's quite different...
Is it from Argentina?
My guess is Hansa 2300.
If you read the last posts carefully you should be able to find the right car
Not Argentina, no 2300.
Hope you don't mind that it's still open for all.. :-\
Did you need the logo clue? ;)
Oops...
There is a Bertone Borgward Hansa by Michelotti...is this?
it's getting warmer..
Which part is wrong?
It is a Hansa, but you haven't found the right model, yet.
It was designed by an Italian, but not by those you've mentioned.
Hansa 1300 by Frua
:faint:
How many times did I see this!
Solve the last one Paul and the night is your friend! ;)
It´s a Citroën with belgian body?
Belgian body is correct!
But it's not a Citroën..
D'Ieteren?
Not D'Ieteren.
This car was made before the builder/designer launched his own company..
...sounds like Apal...
Oh yes..
Now you're on the right trace...
Apal - 1959 made by Edmond Perry on an Auto Union chassis!
Quote from: João on November 25, 2009, 08:31:19 PM

That's the car! :applause: :applause:
It's indeed made by Edmond Perry and based on a Auto-Union
But it is not an
Apal as the brand was founded not until 1961. Appearantly they gave the car a certain name!
Locked for you for 24h
I found that it also could be 1958,but a name...... :-\
Let´s try Pery Auto Union?
The name Perry is part of the name, but the other part has nothing to do with cars.
It's quite glamerous, though..
I've found it in one source on the internet and got a confirmation for it..
I do believe it's Pery (like Paul spells it) and not Perry.
Okay. Found both spellings, but I think you should know what's right! ;)
hurry up João ;) but I think I'll give you a point anyway..
Well, now is too easy...
BTW: On what Auto Union is this car based because I believe there were no such things as Auto Union road cars.
It must have been a DKW.
I still need its name...
As far as I know it was based on a Auto Union 1000S
I thought it was easier...the only model I was able to find was a VW-based GT tuned by Okrasa, that is quite different...
BTW, this is how it looks inside, where you can read 3=6 :
I believe 'Casino-Pery' is the name you are looking for
That one is hard! I can´t find anything else.. :-\.....open for all ;)
