unknown Diamonds (1975)	narcofrecuencia	You do need to steer if you need to be towed. There are no visible levers, gauges or pedals. Back in 1975 standard batteries would have needed much bigger space for storage unlike nowadays.	2023-07-07 02:32
1970 Dodge D-Series Medium Duty Diamonds (1975)	CougarTim	Possibly built in Israel.	2023-07-04 22:07
Autocar DC Diamonds (1975)	Bray7	Square fenders indicate an Autocar DC-Series. I'm not sure these images can determine anything specific however.	2023-07-03 05:19
Autocar DC Diamonds (1975)	zodiac	I believe this is an Autocar truck http://www.heavytruckphotos.com/autocar.html , but I cannot suggest a specific model.	2023-07-01 19:04
1972 Subaru Leone Diamonds (1975)	dsl	Nothing listed for Subaru (as Fuji Heavy Industries) in Israel in World Cars 1972 (no overseas sites at all) and 1975 & 1978 (both say only one overseas site - Portugal - but no clue what was made). These World Cars lists are not bullet-proof but mostly solid; a made-for tag would be useful in case new info is found, so updates can be made.	2023-07-01 13:58
1972 Subaru Leone Diamonds (1975)	s13a	No mention of the local assembly according to the Israeli Wiki. Although it's worth mentioning that Subaru (along with Hino) was the most common Japanese brand in Israel at that time, mainly because other Japanese manufacturers (Toyota, Mazda, Nissan, Honda etc) avoided the Israeli market in the 1970s and 1980s because of the Arab boycott, which could have significantly affected their sales in the Arabian Peninsula.	2023-07-01 13:29

Autocar DC Diamonds (1975)	narcofrecuencia	Bit of help	2023-06-30 22:38
unknown Diamonds (1975)	dsl	I'd guess it is powered - otherwise you don't need the steering wheel, seat (which looks like a double) and other controls. No idea if electric or engined, but there's 2 of them in the wider shot. JBT seem to make similar electric things today (from here) but no doubt lots more possibilities.	2023-06-30 20:07
unknown Diamonds (1975)	Baube	my idea was spread all across the structure but i don't really see the advantage of using this if you need another vehicle to tow it..	2023-06-30 19:09
unknown Diamonds (1975)	narcofrecuencia	I don't see where they'd put the battery in that floor while keeping the structure strong enough to hold the stairway weight capacity. It does have a protrusion in the middle but it doesn't seem detachable/accessible and is probably there just to support the stairs when lowered. -- Last edit: 2023-06-30 19:02:55	2023-06-30 18:59
unknown Diamonds (1975)	Baube	or electric maybe ?	2023-06-30 18:56
unknown Diamonds (1975)	narcofrecuencia	Yes it looks to be the same. With such thinness of the frame I don't believe it's motorized/powered at all, only steerable. -- Last edit: 2023-06-30 18:56:44	2023-06-30 18:55
1972 Volvo 164 Diamonds (1975)	dsl	Early bumper, looks like designer plate but not readable. First 164s in UK Jan 69, Oct 69 fogs fitted in UK instead of horn grilles. Might have Oct 71+ recessed door handles.	2023-06-30 17:47
1975 Volkswagen Golf I [Typ 17] Diamonds (1975)	rjluna2	Made for Israel due to repeater at the front fender.	2023-06-30 16:42
unknown Diamonds (1975)	rjluna2	Could this be the same at the wider shot?	2023-06-30 16:42
unknown Diamonds (1975)	mike962	other views ?	2023-06-30 16:42
unknown Diamonds (1975)	mike962	this vintage stairs almost never get ID anyway	2023-06-30 16:41
1970 Autocars Carmel Ducas 1300 Diamonds (1975)	Gongora	Nice find!	2023-06-30 14:57
1971 Ford Cortina Estate Standard MkIII Diamonds (1975)	dsl	The only solid claim I've seen for Israel Ford builds is Escort from 1968 to about 1981 (Mk1-3) - nothing for Cortinas (or Transits, which seem to have been popular there). I guess the link was always with Ford UK rather than Germany - one unusual consequence was LHD Cortina Mk5s for Israel which I don't think happened anywhere else from European Mk4/5 production (even though these may well have been rebadged TC2/3s from Genk rather than Dagenham builds) apart from Portugal which assembled both Mk4/5. Some bits of Europe got LHD Mk3s, but I don't think there were many places or high numbers. (cheap Altaya partwork from a few years ago) Also noted that captured Mk3 has no grille badge so poverty base spec - no luxuries for the Israeli police!	2023-06-30 14:32
1969 Volkswagen 1600 Variant [Typ 36] Diamonds (1975)	dsl	Hadn't realised there was a small light longnose phase!	2023-06-30 14:17
1975 Volkswagen Golf I [Typ 17] Diamonds (1975)	electra225	Standard trim I think.	2023-06-30 13:48
1972 Subaru Leone Diamonds (1975)	electra225	I think they were assembled in Israel.	2023-06-30 13:45
unknown Diamonds (1975)	narcofrecuencia	With such setup I think it could be either electric or towable. -- Last edit: 2023-06-30 13:44:22	2023-06-30 13:43
1974 Peugeot J7 Police Diamonds (1975)	electra225	Israeli police plate.	2023-06-30 13:41
1965 Hino Contessa 1300 [PD200] Diamonds (1975)	electra225	I remember a Palestinian man living in Jericho driving one exactly like this one in 1991.	2023-06-30 13:23
1971 Ford Cortina Estate Standard MkIII Diamonds (1975)	electra225	I am almost sure such Fords were assembled in Israel. I clearly remember when I lived in the Middle East that Ford had been "punished" by the Arab league in the way that for a quite long way (I would say by the late 60s to the mid 80s but I am not sure... but I remember many Taunus P2, P3 and P5 in Syria and Jordan, but not a single Escort or Knudsen-Taunus) Ford imports in the Arab countries were banned. -- Last edit: 2023-06-30 15:05:26	2023-06-30 13:18
1972 Austin 1300 Countryman MkIII [ADO16] Diamonds (1975)	dsl	Mk3 Sept 71+, so probably Austin although Morris is possible; there were no Mk3 Morris saloons in UK because the Marina had arrived, but the Traveller continued on its lonesome for a few months until April 72 (UK) and April 73 (some export markets) to fill gap before Marina Estate arrived. Austin ended June 74.	2023-06-30 11:58
1969 Volkswagen 1600 Variant [Typ 36] Diamonds (1975)	130rapid	1969. It has old type of bumpers & tail lights still. 1970 sample at similar angle.	2023-06-30 10:24
1972 Ford Granada GXL MkI Diamonds (1975)	dsl	Probably GXL.	2023-06-30 03:46
1971 Ford Cortina Estate Standard MkIII Diamonds (1975)	dsl	Israel used Cortinas as police cars until Mk5.	2023-06-30 03:45
1971 Ford Cortina XL MkIII Diamonds (1975)	dsl	Main is early XL, thumb 74+ and possibly another XL.	2023-06-30 03:42
1969 Volkswagen 1600 Variant [Typ 36] Diamonds (1975)	dsl	Could be a 69-70 H plate, but looks LHD so maybe not its original date although I think it's a longnose.	2023-06-30 03:39
1973 Mini 1000 MkIII [ADO20] Diamonds (1975)	dsl	2 Mini Mk3s, both likely 1000 for chrome trim. And another further back. M plate on right = 73-74. 2nd thumb is another Mk3.	2023-06-30 03:35
1971 Rover 3500 MkII [P6B] Diamonds (1975)	dsl	Mk2, looks bulky below bumper so likely 3500.	2023-06-30 03:30
