RushCars24ID ![]() | Very weird looking, literally, I've come here by the Vapid Youga Custom from GTA Online: The Contract DLC - Short Trips, which even thought it was based on a second generation Ford Econoline like its base Bravado Youga Classic in that game, it brought everything from this film's van as its inspiration. | 2022-02-23 09:59 | ||
KingHenry ![]() | There are also some 69/70 Chargers that are seen in various scenes in CA, also right before the red Charger passes a beige colored one goes by in the opposite direction. | 2021-11-13 13:57 | ||

Galane ![]() | Can't tell 74 or 75 from that image. Shiny bumper strip tags it as one of those two years. Need a closer view to tell the header panel width or if the park lamps have the crossbars, or a shot sowing if the gas cap is above or below the crease. Below was 1974 only. | 2018-12-11 09:57 | ||

dsl ![]() | ^ Can't argue against any of that. Seems early Vixen production was very US targetted (S1 and S2 - maybe 70% of production) but with Cortina Mk2 rear lights this is not S1. The bonnet side grille looks shorter version which was the C-pillar vent from Mk4 Zephyr/Zodiac and introduced on S3; S2 had longer and shallower format vent with horizontal bar. Confirmed that Tuscan V6 (Ford 3-litre) was not exported to US because it could not be adapted for emissions, which is partly why Capris for US were German-built - the obvious UK engine was incompatible, although early US Capris used the UK Kent 1.6 as also fitted to US Cortinas. So US Vixens could have piggy-backed it as well for a time, but US Capris were all 2-litre by 1972 and US Cortinas stopped in 1970 with end of Mk2. Result would have been US-compatible 1600 engines in very short supply by 1970. So TVR grabbed the Triumph 2.5 engine and launched the 2500 (I don't think called Vixen or Tuscan) in 1970 very firmly targetted for US and followed by sequel 2500M, but again agree this is not M body with new rear lights. Tuscan V8 a wildcard and very small numbers dribbling to nothing by 1970, so can be discounted - although US compatible engines were used, crash-testing requirements would have not been worth pursuing. On balance a late Vixen is possible (S3 but not S4 as engines would have dried up by then) but from what I can disentangle from confusing book references, the 2500 seems almost certain, especially with the sunroof option which may not have been available on Vixens. |

night cub ![]() | Even though it's small, it should get its own page since it is so rare, especially in a he US | 2016-09-06 01:49 | ||
CougarTim ![]() | By the taillights and rear styling, it is not any earlier than a 1969 Vixen S2, and not a 1972+ M-Series. The 1.6 was available in the US; Wikipedia says the Tuscan V6, however, was never exported to the US, only the Tuscan V8. The 2.5 was sold as the 1971-1972 Vixen 2500. My research thus indicates our choices are 1969-1970 Vixen S2 (438 built), 1970-1972 Vixen S3 (~165 built), 1972 Vixen S4 (23 built), 1973(?) Vixen 1600 (unknown number built, but likely very few), 1971-1972 Vixen 2500 (385 built) and 1969-1970 Tuscan V8 (~50 built 1967-1970, give or take). Pinning down model years is tricky because it seems like TVR made changes based on when they ran out of the old parts, not based on some silly thing like a calendar. This car also has US-spec side marker lights and, it appears, a sunroof. |

night cub ![]() | The 1200 was the predecessor to the B210 [it was B110 chassis]. This does look like one. |
2016-09-05 22:52 | ||
dsl ![]() | ^ Datsun 1200 Coupe?? (= B210 in US-speak??). Or might be a Marina but doesn't look quite right. | 2016-09-05 22:18 | ||
dsl ![]() | Looks like early 70s Tuscan, with 3.0 Ford V6 or maybe Triumph 2.5 which was homologated for US emissions use via TR6. Vixen with 1.6 Ford Cortina probably wasn't - and even if it was would have been slower than a lamp-post with all the strangulation bits. | 2016-09-05 22:15 | ||
CougarTim ![]() | Yellow coupe at far right is a rare TVR, Vixen or Tuscan. -- Last edit: 2016-09-05 21:28:39 |

rjluna2 ![]() | With the beltline trim here, it could be either Impala or Bel Air ![]() Yes, supcoach, it is 1965 model year as well. |
2016-09-03 18:31 | ||
Reg1992 ![]() | ^ That narrows it down to either a Biscayne/Bel Air/Impala wagon (all full-size, which the one in this shot appears to be as well). Personally I'm leaning toward Impala wagon based on Google image search results, but I can't say that with any certainty. | 2016-09-03 10:33 | ||

L182 ![]() | I own both a '76 Golden Anniversary Grand Prix with a T-Top and the 455 V8 and a '77 GP LJ with the 400 V8, Both are fully loaded to the hilt with every factory option available, Both are EXTREMELY AWESOME cars!!! They can cruise down the interstate like nothing else!!! I just set the cruise control at a good speed and let the Miles magically roll by!!! |

dsl ![]() | The livery was called "White Midnight" in UK - originally for JPS Light cigarettes - but in US was just Capri S. | 2016-04-05 15:07 | ||
the sad biker ![]() | 76-77 Mercury Capri 11, possibly a JPS as white ones were produced for the US market. | 2016-04-05 13:05 | ||

eLMeR ![]() | Chevrolet for sure, it's written on the (1960 only) fender emblem ![]() But not a Carryall, which is another name of the Suburban, "just" a panel. 1960, thus a C/K-Series Apache model. Not a K-Series model, as it seems not to be raised. But it looks a lot more like the C-10 version of the panel (115" -2.92 m- wheelbase / 201" -5.10 m- overall length) than the C-30 one (133" -3.38 m- wheelbase / 234.625" -5.96 m- overall length): ![]() (1963 C-30 panel vs 1964 C-10 panel) And if it is a C-10 panel, it has then the [C1405] Chevrolet inner code. ⇒ 1960 Chevrolet C-10 Apache Panel [C1405]? -- Last edit: 2014-11-21 15:04:45 |

Gamer ![]() | The one in Major League looked good, but this just has the grille poorly bolted on. | 2013-08-09 15:46 | ||

theepirate ![]() | Does anyone know what happened to this car? I read a thread on a lowrider forum after seeing this car in a Jalopnik article and searching for it's whereabouts and nobody knew. | 2013-01-06 12:02 | ||
rorschach ![]() | Wrecker body appears to be a Weld-Built unit, very similar to a Holmes 440. Fox Motors went out of business many years ago, Keystone Towing is the LAPD OPG for Van Nuys division now. -- Last edit: 2012-12-23 01:48:44 |

kustom komet ![]() | That would be a '75-'77 Brougham with those corner marker lights, and the wheel covers look like '76 to me, though it is hard to tell. | 2012-10-07 01:01 | ||
Stampede1975 ![]() | what about the Cadillac in the front? It looks like a 1968 Cadillac Sedan Deville to me | 2012-03-27 02:57 |
