It's got to be British with that gawdawful boot!

The AC is British......Roger..

 

[Mac]

I wasn't offended. Sorry if that's the way it appeared. Am I not allowed to disagree with you, does it cause distress ?......Roger.

Disagree away. It doesn't distress me; however it was annoying me so I end up responding curtly. Like most issues, recognizing the problem is half of the solution. Now that I've noticed, I will read your posts more closely so I don't misinterpret anything and mind my manners.

Meanwhile, this isn't finding a solution to Rocketblock's excellent mystery… More pictures, please?

I like the color of this car:

 

[ROCKETBLOCK]

Corvette Torch Red Color? Or arrest me red?

 

[LT4man]

Could be either one, I believe!

 

[ROCKETBLOCK]

How about another picture clue or something?

 

[LT4man]

How about another picture clue or something?

Sounds like a good idea!



This blue color is a pretty one, also.

 

[LT4man]

Two clues:

Car was built in Italy.

Production occurred in the 1950s.

Good Luck!

Am thinking (ie google-fu):

[LT4man]

That is a great guess. And a gorgeous car!

But, no, not a Maserati.

Another clue:

 

[ROCKETBLOCK]

Mid 1950s Lancia Aurelia B24S Spider

 

[LT4man]

You are correct sir!

Only 240 were built between 1950-1958.

This one sold in Scottsdale AZ in 2013. Pay special attention to the condition and PRICE!
