Guess the vehicle! (GAME)

Hmmm, I first thought that it was going to be one of the 1961-62 Karmann Porsche 356B "notchback" coupes, either a T5 or a T6, but it isn't is it?

They have quarter lights in the front windows, and the lines at the rear aren't quite right either.

Other than that, I have no idea.

It does have a look of VW kharman ghia meets porsche! Weird

And your sister still married him ?

It must have been love.

Lol yea, he also had a volvo 740 thing amd a cool citroen that had the lowering suspension thing when you parked. I loved that car but we could always smell petrol when in it!

Hudson Eight! Hubcaps gave it away

I tried all sorts to make out what it said on them, with no success obviously

Looks a bit like Sunbeam meets Porsche

You are very close... Definitely on the right track.

Hint: Based off of the 356.

Yeah, I spotted THAT straight away.

Is it a Reutter 2+2 version?

Well I'll help you narrow it down further.

1of 5 built.
1960.

If you can't get it I'll still give it to you, you pretty much nailed it.

I think I got it with a bit of googling and edited my answer.

Nice car to post, I knew of the Karmann notchback hardtop coupes but I didn't know that any 2+2 versions were built. It's good to learn something new by playing the game.

OK, here is the next one from me. I'm about to head off to work, so will answer any replies when I get home.

The car is the 1960 Beutler-Porsche. Has a very interesting story. http://justacarguy.blo​gspot.com …beutler-coachbuilder.html

ive lost track of what car to guess so im guessing on what sandpiper posted
Ascari KZ1

That's good Johandyman as that is the current car to guess; and I think you may have nailed it.

Yes, very interesting, thanks for posting that. It does seem to be the same car I found with Google (here: http://www.thesamba.co​m …um_page.php?pic​_id=766214 ) but it was incorrectly identified there as being built by Reutter, who did work on the speedsters and regular coupes so it seemed reasonable.

Yep, as Mick said, you nailed it, Ascari KZ1

You're up next.

Looks like another winner isn't going to post within the allotted time so in an effort to keep things rolling here's another one to have a go at. Not a full one this time, that sandpiper is a little too good. Radiator Badge cloned out.
