5 is a Nissan Pao https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/11/Nissan_Pao_001.JPG

#3 - 1968 Dart

#4 - Pre-bulletnose Studebaker (1949-50)

#7 - 1977.5-78 Corona

Thanks you three for those ID's. I forgot they still made Sutdebaker's in the early 60s. :smile:

These are from my dashcam:

1960 Ford?

http://i.imgur.com/xZPZdvs.jpg

1980s Dodge Diplomat I think....or maybe a Chrysler because of that rear-quarter vinyl top?

http://i.imgur.com/ydq9ZOR.jpg

1987-89 Toyota Camry (there are lots of these here, even my co-worker drives one - but I really like them when I see them)

http://i.imgur.com/cyXZVIu.png

1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais

1994 Geo Metro

http://i.imgur.com/I0VNGue.png

1994-96 Chevrolet Impala?

http://i.imgur.com/FoOpR1c.jpg

2002 Dodge Ram Van B3500 - only posting because I did not know they made them in this style into the 2000s....and to me they resemble "serial killer vans" :grin:

Banning trucks over 7.5 tons on feast days has a whole new meaning after the events in Nizza. :chut:

Some more Google Earth pics...
[...]
#8 Dodge?
http://i.imgur.com/HtxEk5Qm.jpg

[...]

1965-67 Dodge D-Series 'Utiline' indeed. Possibly a long ½-ton D-100 or a ¾-ton D-200, as the wheelbase seems to be too long to be the one of the short D-100.

[...] Some sort of Holden Ute, but LHD and Pontiac grill, and no ID badges:
https://c7.staticflickr.com/9/8143/29793587422_bfe00aa7d5_m.jpg
[...]

According to Wikipedia, the Pontiac G8 ST was shown at the NYIAS in March 2008 and scheduled as 2010 model, but it was eventually canceled in January 2009. Baube's link shows therefore imported, modified and street legal vehicles, but they are unofficial models.

[...] Studebaker Avanti:
https://c3.staticflickr.com/9/8317/29872463186_77e03194c9_m.jpg

[...]

Square headlamps indicate a 1965-83 Avanti II, not a 1963-64 Studebaker Avanti.

[...]
1958 Chevy Viking COE:
https://c7.staticflickr.com/6/5497/29280137974_29a3a4506f_m.jpg
[...]

Not a "whole COE" :wink: : it was sold as LCF - Low Cab Forward (a name apparently reused nowadays).

[...]
1959 Ford F-500 Tow Truck:
https://c4.staticflickr.com/9/8495/29824227651_16d37916cf_m.jpg
[...]

I agree with Ddey65: despite Hemming's identification, a grille with single headlamps usually means a 1957 model.

Ah thanks. I'll get better at those eventually.

I knew it had to be Dodge based on those bug-eyed headlamps they used on their trucks in the 60s. :grin:

I never could tell the difference between the Volkswagen Sedans and the Super Beetles, I always get those mixed up. Thanks though. :smile:

^ Nice 3rd gen Accord, I still see a lot of those here in similar condition. I would have loved to see that Chevette, I've only seen one in person (a beat up 1976-78 one), and it was actually being driven! :lol:

The Chevette was on the road, it was on the opposite lane, driven by an old lady.... i wanted to zoom in but for an unknown reason ( probably related to the " Infiniti Drop " ) the button wasn't responding then the whole camera was blocked. There was a message saying that i had to turn it off and on again but by then my light turned green and i had to leave the camera aside... :ohwell:


short story : The " Infiniti Drop " is how i call my little accident at the Montréal International Auto Show where i accidentally dropped my camera on the metallic part in front of this Infiniti https://www.flickr.com/photos/zytonits/20420296474/in/album-72157657598234420/
It did a fall of a little bit more than 5ft and landed on a corner near the zoom. Since then it has a little strange behaviour ( missing close cars and getting the far ones good, or the opposite, quality getting worst if i take many pics ( and recently did nearly 500 pics ithout problem... ) but most of the time getting good pics

Well, wasn't that short after all... :grin:

The grille seems to be the one of a 1975-76 C/K-Series. Front differential makes it more precisely a 4x4 K-Series, but the distorted ratio prevents from seeing if the bed is the one of short K-15 or the one of a long K-15 / "standard" K-25.

It is 1966-72 104, the hubcaps seem to be from the older 103.

If anyone is interested, he may check our database, if his vehicles are already listed. Not unlikely, that it is.
