Toughie.  But I'll bite. All my guesses are wrong except the Saab, but listed is what they remind me of.  Give me any 1950's era American car though and I'll bat 100% The text gives some clues though, but I can't pick them out. Maybe the Jaguar.

#1 top row - Capri
2 - Mini
3 - Corvair
4 - Nissan 280Z
5 - Saab
6 - 1963 Ford
7 - Couldn't even venture
last three - Lancia's

Nr1: ford Capri Mk2




Nr5 : Saab 96

Ok, so I'm 2 out of 10. 20%.

Give me a minute....................no cheat looking them up. See if I can enlarge the pictures. 83 YO eyes............

Some pictures remain a mistery for me as well!

Your taste was much better the second time around.

I like the wheel choices before and after.
My all time favorites have to be the Crager SS,
and Keystone Classic, in that order, depends
on the car. Those old chrome reverse wheels
looked good too. At least I'm not so old, that
I thought moon wheel covers looked cool.

My son's K code (very rare) bought for $450, original engine, missing right front fender, interior, broken this, broken that.  We fixed it up.

Pictures taken from 35mm slides.









A habit of ours





37 years later, same kid different Mustang.  Same thing bought as a parts car, restored.

Well, those cars are both beauties gents! Thanks for sharing the pics.

Just to break the Mustang hegemony -I don't want you lot to become narrow minded - some more answers of the quiz above:



Nr3: Panhard 24




Nr6: Opel rekord




Nr8: Maserati Ghibli




Nr10: Iso Lele

What's this Lieven, not a Citroen in sight? I would have nailed a 2CV.

No not at all, the closest you can get is the Maserati. Citroën owned Maserati from 1967 till 1975. The Ghibli was made during this period.

Hegemony? More like Blasphemy. We now have an electric Mustang, and heaven forbid, rumblings of an SUV Mustang. Rock bottom for Ford. Porsche went the same SUV route, but it saved the company.

Radiator grilles from which car ?????

Tricky!
I’ll start with the easy ones Top row, from left:
1. Opel Rekord P2
2. BMW 328 (not really sure about this )
3. Renault 16
4 and 5. I really should know these, both look familiar.

Bottom Row
1.
2. Facel Vega
3. Daimler Sovereign
4. Austin Healey Sprite
5. Volvo 740 or 940

look like Most of them Of Europe ? I think I recognize A bmw but I'm not sure an alfa romeo can also be there?? Olds cars for sure

Nr1 Opel Rekord



Nr3: Renault 16



Nr7: Facel II



Nr8: Jaguar JX6 series 1 (Like the Daimler, but the Daimler has a ribbed part on top of the grill)




Nr10: Volvo 740




Nr 5 is easy. Nr 9 is not an Austin Healey, it's not even an Austin or an Healey

To get you going:

Nr 2 comes from the same country as nr 8 (the Shaguar).

Nr5 is the same make as number 2 and comes from the same country as Nr 1.

Ha! It’s an Anglia, the number two:



So obvious! There’s a guy around here who used to drag race one 20-30 years ago.

EDIT: Here’s the drag Anglia, owned and driven by Antti Kivinummi who has a speed motor shop nearby.




That makes #5 easy, an early German Ford, a 1960 Taunus 12m:



That number 4 is driving me a little nuts. I KNOW I’ve seen that grille/turn signal in a late ’50s or early ’60s small(ish) car

#4 (bottom) is driving me nuts Kari.  I know I have seen it before in Automobile/Car and Driver but I'm not going to go through 350 copies to find out.  I'm thinking the odd Ferrari or Maserati but I was wrong on the Anglia, so who knows.  Lancia?

This picture should get you on the right track!



Nr 9, or 4 in the bottom row, is a roadster, the logo is a globe.

Nr 6 is not common but the name fell before.

I needed help with nrs 4 and 6. I couldn't find those by searching the web alone.
