I think it is a Fiat 128. Early to mid 70s.

 

Close enough (this is actually Serbian Zastava 101, which is pretty much Fiat 128's twin).

Your turn.

 

This one is pretty rare so I will give a couple of hints...it is ford powered, mid-engine and awd.

 

1990??? Panther Solo, powered by a 1.6L 4cyl (Solo I) or 2.0L DOHC Ford/Cosworth 4cyl (Solo II)

 

Correct...1990 Pather Solo II with a DOHC Ford/Cosworth motor.

I had never heard of this car before yesterday. I am impressed you got so quick.

 

OMG, I had forgotten about the Panther Solo. I LOVED That Car! I actually prefer the original Solo I over the Solo II. The original Solo I debuted in 1984 and was a strict 2 seater, but couldn't compete with the Pontiac Fiero and Toyota MR2 in price, so it was reworked as the Solo II. The wheel base was streched and it was given 2 small jump seats in the rear. Full time 4 wheel drive and a Ford Cosworth Turbo 1.6 liter 4 cylinder engine.

Solo I, 1984



Solo !! 1990

 

Ok lets see if you can guess this one. It is very unique and it is technically a production "chassis".

 

This one was very tough. I guessed it was a 1950s car with custom coachwork. I figured the photo was taken at a Concours. The background looked like a Pebble Beach. It took a while but I found it in some Pebble Beach web photos.

1956 Ferrari 250 GT B Geneve Boano Cabriolet. It is a beautiful 50s era rare Ferrari car!

 

nice research work!!! When I stumbled across the photos of the 250's I thought they were some of the best looking cars ever built. This is not one of my favorites but it was the only one that did not look quite like a Ferrari right from first glance.

It was designed by Felice Mario Boano & first shown at the Geneve auto show, hence the name. He later became famous for his Chrysler Designs

 

Here is the next one.

 

Here is a hint. It is French and although the company still exists and manufactures vehicles, they ceased building civilian cars in 1968.

 

Panhard Dyna Junior

 

Yes sir. 1955 model. You turn.

 

 

1989 Skoda Favorit

 

Yep.

 

How about this? There were plans to build at least 25, but only three sold due to high price.

 

1956 ******* Gladiator

 

You got it. Very interesting car.

"In 1955 Chicago enthusiast Ed ******* took his dream of a American Sports car to Brooks Stevens to design. The car was built in Germany by Spohn of Ravensburg. It was powered by a Cadillac V8, 365 ci engine developing 305HP at 4700 rpm, with a 100" wheel base chassis with 7.10 x 15 tires. The ******* Gladiator redefined what the automotive world expected from an American production car, in terms of luxury. The intricately shaped luxo-coupe, sporting a retractable hardtop, was a super-exclusive luxury car rivaling the highest-end Rolls imaginable — at least in price. (It cost nearly $18,000 in mid 1950s dollars - more like $150,000 today). With its swept-back, jet-age comportment, German build quality and upper-crust interior appointments. The car featured a slide-out spare wheel and illuminated wheel wells for night-time tire changes."





Looks like the makers of the movie "The Car" copied the style of the front.
