I think it might be Vincent from the mid-thirties but I'm not sure of the model.

Help is hopefully coming

I have posted the picture on a site where a vintage car expert will hopefully help me out with this. Really sorry for the mess, my friend is not replying to me, so must be away. I will find out

Silly to delete the info on my part

OMG..I am in trouble maybe

He has replied to me but said he is not sure now what it is. He thinks its British, but so do I. It also has a GB plate on the back in the photo. I have posted on other sites about identifying so will keep you posted

It might be a Riley Brooklands Special but I'm not totally sure.

Haven`t had a post here for awhile. Found this old girl lurking in a garage in Bangkok. It has an old expired Thai rego sticker on it, so has been here for sometime. The owner is wanting to have air conditioning installed.

1950's - Those three little chrome flashes on the rear wing make me think Buick but shouldn't they be on the front wing in that case?

I think it's a Packard...but don't know the year. Pete

Yes, correct Pete. But you and me both as far as the year goes. It is early 1950`s, but the grill does not match any that I can find. Most of these cars were fitted with a staight 8 flat head engine, but again, I can not find out for sure. I sent the photos to a Packard club member, but he did not respond.

Looks like the Packard 250 at this wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packard_200

If you do an image search for Packard 250 convertible, you'll see that some have two chrome rear wing 'thingies', some have three and some have four. That might help narrow down the year if it was related to facelifts.

Packards through the 1950's for comparison - http://oldcarandtruckpictures.com/Packard/1950.html

Can I put a motorcycle in this challenge? It almost looks like a car with 2 wheels...

Can anyone identify this one? Wouldn't this be cool on the streets of Hua Hin?

The Car Challenge

Would a Challenge thread about automobiles be of interest?
