Someone just had ta open suit on the foriegn jobs. So heres one I already have a feelin Bob will know, being as he was into the sports car thing. Name the year, builder(designer), model. Clue:all three models are the same year. Hope the pic comes through!
Here's a picture of the oldest of the three!:)
The next youngest (hint vs hint).:)
And the youngest of the 3. Complete with a strong clue for the very observent.
Well now ya didnt have ta burry my nose in it :CRY:
Though I saw it comin, but just had ta give it a go!
Hold fast youngster, there's still a lot o' guessin' to be had here. Streets, Joe, Dave, Dan, they all need to step up and take a swing, as well as anyone else who cares ta.:D
CRS?
I knew the Setzer one the minute I looked at it though I had never seen it before. A while back one of his Big chopped custom boats was on ebay and fetched a big spread. Dont remember what kind of car but do remember its taste and this one screamed it. Maybe the same builder he has or a look he goes for, dunno. though the cars are two totally different birds the flavor is evident.
Streets - TV Cable re 700R4 - Throttle Valve cable - rund from carb linkage to trans, controls what the tranny sees are far as trhottle opening, down strictly a downshift type of thing. poorly adjusted you'll burn up the trans. I can get more info if you, Ford driver, needs it. :3dSMILE:
As to these cars pitchered here, fereign thay sey, huh?
Looks like early Mach 5 Coupe prototypes...:LOL:
Geeeee thanks Bob, now ya know this means you'll all be smell'n rubber now while I try & think WTF this car is. And to think, I thought I'd be able to just slideeeeeeeeeeee by this one......joeQuote:

To get us back on topic, here's the three of them lined up for a rump shot!
by looking at the pics over & over again, w/the hints I would bet they are from over seas, (look at the rims) and I know of only a FEW cars that had stock wire wheels on them and two of them are the MG & Alfa Romeo , soooooooooooooooo here's a front pic of one of the cars http://www.team.net/www/ktud/images/b5.gif BAT 5, 7, 9d

damn Bob I even looked at the page you just posted, I guess i didnt look far enuff into to it, they got some wild cars on that page, dont they.........joe
Well, Justin came up with a good one here. These are fascinating cars. Take a look at that BAT 7 car's nose design. This is a 1954 car, and there is a vague resemblence to current Formula and Indy car front shapes!
Hopefully we've got Justin hooked on joining our little "game".
Some might say that this was the original "BAT"mobile...
