I'm impressed, yes to both questions. P4 Replica has me stumped on the last 'name the car'... any ideas? Damn, that's a tough one...
No idea on that car. Looks 1960's era. Some sort of 2+2, before headrests on the seats. The most distinctive traits are the rounded rear upper body lines and those unusual slots or indents on the upper part of the rear trunk face. The wheels look like the slotted steel ones with dog-dish type hubcaps on them. So, maybe a Fiat product of some kind?
I thought it was a VW Karmann Ghia special, or some type of Frua design with a rear engine. A real toughie. Hillman Imp Zagato.
We have a winner (see second to the last picture) http://www.imps4ever.info/specials/zimp.html More info http://www.zagato-cars.com/en-us/pg_290.html Cool headlights too Image Unavailable, Please Login

Too many pictures to think about. My head hurts. Well, the orange spider is the easy one. It is a DKW Enzmann 500 Spider. See web page at: http://www.dyna.co.za/enzmann.htm Interesting write-up about that car brand. Don't know about the other cars.
Agreed, Toggie. In future, can we stick to one car per post, please Is ? Otherwise which winner's turn will it be to post the next poser ? Second one in Isabelle's post #1262 - small one of rear corner: tail-lights and bumper looks like a '63 Studebaker Avanti.
It is !! After posting that, a hour or so ago, I just (honestly) right-clicked on your photo, Isabelle. You forgot to change the caption (to a day of the week, whatever) on that particular photo.
That's the same reason I said the orange spider "was the easy one". When I right-clicked on the larger picture, it said "DKW Enzmann " in the file name. So, I take no credit for guessing it. I like the look of the green car on the shore line in the first of Is's pictures (the one with the lady holding the rose). I just have no idea what it is.
No problem, one at a time it is, so please forget the rest... and yes, the Enzmann (I thought that would be the difficult one, Toggie !!) and Avanti answers are winners.I had a lapse on the Stude post.... Both of you had winning answers, Toggie was first so by all means...your turn.
Okay. Since I'm curious what this car is, I post this one. (But we'll still need Isobel to tell us who guesses correctly). Image Unavailable, Please Login
Jeff is right on both counts. The 1000 is as close a 3/4 replica of a 55 T-bird as you're likely to see. 3 cyl , FWD and somehow no lawsuit from Ford. DB had cars entered in Lemans for a number of years and often won their class. The car in the red thumbnail and b/w photo should be driven by Jacques Laffite because he drove one in F1. The red racer in the photo is an Austrian Porsche rival in the 50's. Oscar winner Washington should own one...... Please , whoever would care to post, by all means....do the honors..
Toggie, here's the mini T-bird and others. Cheers! Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I've been working outside, I'm too dirty to handle my books right now, I'll post something later after I get cleaned up, OK?
L Deutsch-Bonnet Coupe, R is Ligier JS2 and IIRC Matra race version of same. Hi Jeff. Hi Isobel, I used to play often.Here's 2 Bonus point, easy. What did JS stand for? Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
