    The Packard sold for $143,000 a couple of years ago.

    Amazing!

    Thought I'd offer up something less lofty. Not exactly a fantasy vehicle as you may gather, but an interesting one nevertheless due to the owner who actually spent time wheeling it around. I imagine the sleuths may get a read on this one (and the owner) quickly.

    Sherwood green/brown 72 Chrysler New Yorker T&C wagon?
    Can't imagine who'd drive all that steel and glass.

    People think I'm crazy trying to stop the sleuths. Lee is correct.

    For the rest of you guys that we keep stepping on, that was John Lennon's Chrysler wagon.
    John Lennon's Car: A Wagon That Rocks ?n? Rolls - Speedhunters
    Here's full pic. Window switches and door trim early 70's chrysler bits, slab side and hubcap either Chrysler or big Dodge. Door frame meant wagon or sedan. Green odd. So there you go.

    Here's new unknown. A real thing, from a real car company

    Hoss and Little Joe and George Jetson. I know this thing except the name of it. I'll never be on Jeopardy ;)

    No, it's not a bad accident that happened at the Beechcraft factory with a couple protos.
    Is, you should know it, or at least about it. It didn't run, but it was associated with some very nice designs.
    Not American, though related to one US show car. :)

    European. Factory show car. Designer has done some wonderful cars, quirky yet iconic, and have aged far better than this.
    Bonus if you name 2-3 of his designs, not much of a hunt.
    This car was early in his career.
    He isn't British or German, if you couldn't tell. :)
    I left the badge on a pic. Not that it's any help at all :)

    Well played, Is. That was funny.

    It's the Simca Fulgur. Was supposed to be nuclear powered like Ford Nucleon, only a good number of years prior, and have anti-grav pads with 2 wheels.

    Its designer was Robert Opron.

    He did the Citroen SM, Alpine A310, Alfa SZ from 89, Citroen DS facelift, CX, and the GS amongst others. Interesting guy and some epic cars to say the least.

    Sorry I give history, hopefully it makes up for the battle of the titans :)

    Your play Isobel.

    Follow up was the Spohn of the dead, which reminded me of the moss covered Irish T-bird you posted.

    Forget about BAT. Pull out your old books, magazines, or personal photo collection. Gotta be some rare gems hiding in there somewhere.

    Good one! Could've sworn someone had posted this one before, but a search of this thread for the relevant terms only results in a different car involving some of the same relevant terms. :) Mind if I take it?

    Triumph TR3 by Vignale. Even more interesting design from the rear:

    Wow. The wheels are telling me Aston Martin, but the flying buttresses are telling me some variant on a Merak. Confusion reigns.
