To celebrate me hitting one below triple digits, and to continue the theme with 66 and 33, here's a multi-puzzle with a common theme.

A fairly obvious one at that...

What three vehicles are presented here?

99C =  Terrence Disdale’s custom Range Rover convertible proposal.
99A =  Schuler Range Rover Convertible by Auto Kugel.
Just a wild guess at 99B = Judging only by the wheels used, is this a conversion by AUTOMAGINATION in Australia?

99A = No!

99C = The Terrence Disdale entry in the Edminton Yacht design competition, called  “St. Tropez Al Fresco tender".

99A = I found unaltered photos of this vehicle on a French website labeled "Schuler Range Rover Convertible" the decals on the lower door mark it as  "SCHULER by AutoMaker".

Still trying to locate a Range Rover at the Petra Ruins.

99C = Yup that's the one, thankyou!

99A = You know what, you're right! It's actually my image that I took years ago, and I... misread... another point for you! Can't believe how wrong I got that haha.

99B is still up for grabs!

Wood & Pickett Sheer Rover

I am impressed!

This is the Wood & Pickett Sheer Rover made specifically for the Queen of England's visit to Jordan in the 1980s and resides in the Jordanian Royal Automobile Museum.
