[Qwik6]

Ill go with the classic theme.
1930's model.

[aussiblue]

Chrylser Desoto Airflow.

[Qwik6]

Over to you aussiblue.

[aussiblue]

1934 Chrysler Airflow to be more exact.

[Qwik6]

Thats better!!

[aussiblue]

let's move to the 40's

[aussiblue]

In street trim:

[aussiblue]

Maker's badge/logo:

[aussiblue]

OK a cryptic clue - there is a connection with soccer, a recent Clint Eastwood movie and Grand Prix racing.

[Qwik6]

Ive got nothing :(

[AussieAV]

Ditto - can't even work out whats on the emblem. Is that a goat??.....an ibex maybe??

Stumped me!

Edit: Is it a Bagwyn in the emblem?

[Cam]

Good god, I have stumbled across this thread for the first time..

Shame on you for making me think this hard at 11:30 on a Friday night..

[aussiblue]

Ok an easier clue. In 1947 Tazio Nuvolari drove a car from this maker almost to a win.

[Cam]

Cisitalia 202?

[aussiblue]

The aerodynamic from this maker also inspired the US 50's tailfin designs of Virgil Exner

[aussiblue]

Yes Cam's right; to be exact a 1947 Cisitalia Savonozzi 202 Streamliner.

By the way they are another reborn car maker planning new 2010 models see: http://www.cisitalia.com/

[aussiblue]

BTW there was Cistitalia Torino Model. The man behind the company was Piero Dusio (October 13, 1899 – November 7, 1975) a retired Italian soccer player, businessman and Grand Prix racing driver. Tazio Nuvolari the Italian GP champion drove a Cistitalia to second place in the 1947 Milli Miglia. see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cisitalia

I can see the answers, and I'm still confused

Nicely done certainly stumped most of us.

[aussiblue]

In early car aerodynamics design terms its as famous as the Chrysler airflow models - which is why I thought of it.

[Cam]

Ok... mine is pretty easy... but I love these cars so I dont care! haha

[aussiblue]

S Series Valiant and I love R and S series too.

[aussiblue]

This one even:

[Cam]

Correct, 1962 SV1 to be exact..

They are so sexy...

[aussiblue]

I'm off to bed so have another turn.

[Cam]

Ok.. Something else that has always appealed to me ... Slightly less common.. although still pretty well known.. considering they had a massive 85kw, did 190km/h and weighed a mere 960kg..

[davessleepin351]

Toyota carina?

[Cam]

Nope.. Will give another clue at 10am..

[fou_bleu]

Toyota Corolla?

[Cam]

Nope..
