electra225 ◊ 2010-12-19 19:28	this scene was shot outside Italy: too many foreign cars for the era...: Saab 96, Glas 1700, BMC Mini,

Super Minx could be interesting for an Italian location as possibly Touring-built, but has S3/4 cabin so too late for Italian assembly. The Glas looks the most interesting car - never realised its baby Quattroporte resemblance before. So what is the story of this photo - where could it be, and why black and white?

Ingo ◊ 2010-12-21 00:58	To realize Gag's last comment, it's a continental LHD-car.
DynaMike ◊ 2010-12-21 12:58	I agree with Ingo, the Glas is too rare not to be listed...
