The "Help me identify this car" thread

It was in one of the Cannonball movies I'm sure!!!

 

Damn that was good timing!

For the record, the wheels are probably worth more than the car!

 

haha

 

Im 100% sure the car in the Cannonball run movie is the Purvis Eureka.

Both the same???

They look the same but maybe the angles at the back of the yellar one are sharper?

 

I think the rear is a little different. But it could be mate? Just a newer version of it perhaps?

 

Can some classic car experts please help me in identifying the year, make and model of these two cars to the best of your ability?

I don't claim to be an expert at identifying American cars, but I'd guess that the first one is a 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air, and the second one is a 1957 Ford Fairlane Skyliner Retractable Hardtop.

 

Yep.

Personally the '55 Bel Air is my fave...

 

'56 Chevrolet with a '57 Chevy right behind it. Correct also on the 57 Ford Starliner retractable hardtop.

I believe I see a '38 Chevy sedan behind the Starliner and a '56 M/B beside it.......I think, could be wrong....

 

Wow, thanks everyone, you guys are great. Since you're on a roll, what is this car in the pic?

No clue on car in the pic, but recently I was in SE Wisconsin and happend to be at a hotel that hosted a "Ford retractable club" national event. No hot chicks, no hot cars.... cars were crap, event was crap (was there for other reasons), people and overall event were pretty much dead... lots of guys with brill cream.

I like cars...cars of all kinds, yet this event really was dead and the cars themselves while a part of american history were not even close to being anything close to exciting in person....sorry...JMHO

Yet the bottom line is drive, own, buy, dream of, lust after that which appeals to you and screw the rest of us who have a worhtless opinion =)

 

is it a wiseman or something?

That's the result after too much whiskey and having a 3 way with a 93, 911, 2005 Crossfire and a 1940's Jaguar.
