We still have https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Unidentified_fire_engines that needed to be sort it out. Some of them are already identified, but it doesn't have category listed yet.

I see that with a lot of vehicles there.

I'm going to need someone from the UK for this thing;

I don't know why, but I keep leaning towards a Dennis for some reason.

Regarding this old Ford;

Model T or Model A?

Model A I would say. Too heavy for a T.

I'm no bus expert, but while it's RHD and I can see a generally 1960s UK shape, the front grille is very different from the usual suspects. Might be worth thinking about a Hong Kong source as an alternative??? Also if UK or HK the bodywork has been heavily altered to switch the entry doors to the US kerbside.

And this Chevy Bel Air:

1955 or 1956?

Found (near the Renault model) by my air-cooled friend among various documents, ads and magazines in the attic of his late grandfather, a picture of his great-grandfather and of his grandmother, most probably taken during the 1950s:


Any idea of the make and model of this car? 479-(D or Q)-87 is a 1950-51 registration number, but the car looks more like one from the 1930s, and the French registration system changed in 1950...

This looks British:

I'm thinking Triumph TR3, but I'll take any other suggestions from those who know better.

Spitfire, probably Mk3 for headrests.

Somebody posted a whole bunch of 1958 Mercury "Villager" station wagon images on Wikimedia Commons, but it was Edsel that made the Villager back then, not Mercury.

I'm going to assume this is the Mercury Voyager for now, but just to be sure, can anybody make out the outline of the removed cowl insignia on the side of the headlights?

Also, this NYC Boro Taxi has the roofline of a Nissan Murano, but a grille that looks like a Nissan Versa from 10 years ago with a cheap chrome job.

Looks more like the first gen Rogue than Murano. Everything but the front bumper and grille.

It's a George Irat. I have a scale model of that roadster.

It may be a bit older than 1938 as written on the model's plinth.

Thanks for that lead, Exiv96. We'll certainly contact the Georges Irat Club to see if they know a bit more about the model shown in the picture, as it seems to have some specific items not visible on "production" vehicles.

What's this silver 1930's coupe at a car show in Annandale, Minnesota?

It almost looks Ford-ish. There are actually a lot of other cars there I'm not too sure about.

New question; I think I may have posted this before, but it looks like a 1953 Dodge. Comments?

Another question; This construction tractor looks like a Ford.

Am I right, or not?

Four messages in a row. I've got a renaming issue to deal with. Two of these station wagons at another Minnesota antique car meetup are 1963 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 Fiesta station wagons. The third on the right might be a 1963, but I have my doubts.

I looked up the grille for that blue one on the Old Car Brochures website, and I didn't find anything resembling it.

Looks like someone wanted to make a Starfire wagon, added a Starfire grille and wheels. Looks like an emblem on the fender, which I think was the trunk emblem.

This car looks like either the Dodge Intrepid or Chrysler Concorde. I'm leaning towards the Intrepid, but I could be wrong.

Aww, dammit! Now I just starting thinking of the idea of a DeSoto version!
