1964 Morris 1000 Super Stationcar [ADO59] Violer er blå (1975)	There seems to be some confusion regarding dating these. Many sources mention 1962 for this update of indicators, it seems to be mixed up with the upgraded engine that came in Oct-62 for 1963 models. The lights and wipers were changed in Oct-63 for 1964 models. Detailed info here, I hope it´s correct: http://potteries.mmoc.org.uk/Identify.htm	2011-11-06 10:48

1912 Rolls-Royce 40/50 h.p. 'Silver Ghost' Open Drive Limousine Festival of Transport (1996)	dsl wrote I think an admin has sorted out the Silver-Ghost-without-40/50hp group as my 1st comment - it's now empty and everything apart from AX 201 seems to be "40/50 h.p. 'Silver Ghost' " now. So I think we're all agreed. I did that, renamed all that were named just Silver Ghost to 40/50 h.p., since that was not an official designation in that period. But I hesitated to move 'Silver Ghost' to extra info on the rest, but I think that would be best since they were only named 40/50 h.p. when new.	2011-10-29 20:44
1966 Pontiac 2+2 Hardtop Coupe [25437] A Walk in the Spring Rain (1969)	Known as Catalina 2+2? Even with a seriescode separated from the Catalinas?	2011-10-29 00:40
1961 SAAB 96 Rome Adventure (1962)	ingo wrote Denmark. An expert can even say, from which town and year. KC is Copenhagen, and the number 27202 is probably issued about 1961-62, so the car could well have been new. -- Last edit: 2011-10-28 23:48:01	2011-10-28 23:25
1966 Pontiac 2+2 Hardtop Coupe [25437] A Walk in the Spring Rain (1969)	They were all marketed as 2+2 to the customers, behind the scenes they were either part of the Catalina series with option pack, or as a series of their own.

1980 Volvo 66 DL Frits en Freddy (2010)	From the details visible it´s at least a 1978, the headrests and the black door mirrors. The stripes are most likely applied later, or by the dealer when the car was new. These stripes came only on the 66 GL and this car bears no sign og being a GL, wrong grille and 14 inch wheels. So I see no reason to doubt that it is actually a 1980 model.	2011-10-24 17:08
1980 Volvo 66 DL Frits en Freddy (2010)	It´s puzzling with those stripes, they belonged to the DAF 66 Marathon and I´ve seen them on some 1976 Volvo 66s also. Maybe they could be had as option later, but I don´t really know. But I don´t think they were on the option list for 78-80 really.	2011-10-21 21:58

1942 Dodge Custom Convertible Coupe [D-22] Los hampones (1955)	Probably a 1942 Dodge Custom Convertible Coupe [D-22] -- Last edit: 2011-10-19 18:42:37	2011-10-19 18:40
1939 De Soto Custom [S-6] Los hampones (1955)	Possibly a 1939 De Soto: http://www.oldcaradvertising.com/DeSoto/1939%20DeSoto/1939%20DeSoto%20Ad-07.html It´s got some high mounted extra lights, and maybe the original headlights have been replaced with more modern round lights. This was not uncommon on 1939 Chrysler corp cars when headlights faded.	2011-10-19 18:37

1949 Oldsmobile 76 Futuramic Club Sedan [3507] The Lusty Men (1952)	Maybe, but it´s hard to tell on this picture. But don´t you think that the molding would have been more prominent also?	2011-10-18 15:18
1949 Oldsmobile 76 Futuramic Club Sedan [3507] The Lusty Men (1952)	Probably a Futuramic 76, the 88´s had trim molding at bottom of front fender. It would probably have been visible even here. Style [3507] was common on both series. Link to "www.oldcarbrochures.com"	2011-10-18 14:49
1941 Studebaker Champion Custom Cruising Sedan The Lusty Men (1952)	Indeed, probably a Commander Custom Cruising Sedan. I thought it looked a bit large to be a Champion, but bumpers are different on Commanders so it´s more likely a Champion Custom Cruising Sedan. -- Last edit: 2011-10-18 14:26:24	2011-10-18 14:21

1985 Mercedes-Benz [W124] Teresa (1987)	That´s correct, they were introduced late in 1984 as 1985 models, on some markets not sold until 1986 modelyear.	2011-10-17 23:14
1973 SAAB 99 2.0 L Tommy (1975)	Indeed, introduced for 1974 models. I only checked for colors at first, so it would be a 1973 only. I can´t think of any other color that could match this one on 1971-72 models, even it might be a bit distorted.	2011-10-17 22:01
1973 SAAB 99 2.0 L Tommy (1975)	Headrests were not mandatory on all markets. They were also easy to remove before 1974 model when they became integrated on the 99 models.	2011-10-17 21:50
1973 SAAB 99 2.0 L Tommy (1975)	The color seems to be brown, so it would be 1973-75 and only available in L trim.	2011-10-17 21:22
1912 Rolls-Royce 40/50 h.p. 'Silver Ghost' Open Drive Limousine Festival of Transport (1996)	My knowledge on Rolls-Royce is rather shallow, but after browsing my books and the net about Silver Ghosts I found that the AX 201 was part of a sort of pre-series built during 1907. These cars were thoroughly tested to ensure that the cars delivered to customers were reliable. From what I can find this car was also named Silver Ghost from the start and that there were other names applied on other test vehicles. The Silver Ghost entered in several rallies and soon became famous and written about in the press, soon the name became connected to the production vehicles that reached customers from september 1907 and on. But Rolls-Royce didn´t acknowledge that name until production had ceased in 1925, so it seems to be a semi-official nickname applied in retrospect. If these facts are correct, a solution on grouping these cars could be: Since the AX 201 was a pre-series it´s category could be changed to proto/concept instead of convertible, and the name Silver Ghost could be entered without '' surrounding it since it was given that name from the beginning. The production cars could be grouped together as just 40/50 hp. With 'Silver Ghost' like it is now, in the model field, or maybe better moved to extra info like most other nicknames are treated. -- Last edit: 2011-10-17 08:49:42	2011-10-16 21:36

1937 Dodge Touring Sedan [D-5] The Major and the Minor (1942)	But we do not have a body style box, we only have "Extra Info" for various excessive information that can´t be squeezed in the Model box. Often this contains trimlevels, enginesize or bodystyles. All of these can also be found in the Model box when the manufacturers name them only like that, there´s no difference between them really, they just refer to something of the car. Common with others, and it´s only bodystyles that you attack. Why is that? I don´t wish you to be removed, I see that you provide with a lot of knowledge on old cars. But I don´t understand your attitude towards history and historical documents, it for sure isn´t easy to deal with it, but just rejecting all original documents is very strange. There´s many times a difference between what cars basically are and what they´re called, we have lots of platform based models barely differentiated by their badges. And there´s a variety of cars renamed from market to market. The tradition here has for a long time been to find the correct commercial names for them, this should of course include even oddities from the early days of motoring, and brandnames that often are overlooked. Otherwise we´re rewriting history, and it´s also inconsistent if only some cars can be named like the manufacturers intended. The problem with similar/identical cars named differently has been discussed before and there will be a solution for that in the coming upgraded version of this site. It´s a far better way to deal with the problem in finding ways to connect that info, rather than just cutting it out and deleting it. -- Last edit: 2011-10-15 11:14:52	2011-10-14 22:24
1937 Dodge Touring Sedan [D-5] The Major and the Minor (1942)	1935-1938 Dodge came with one engine and trimlevel only, Dodge named them only by their body styles on homemarket. On exportmarkets the Plymouth based cars often are referred to as Dodge Six though. 1935: Several models 1936: Dodge Convertible Sedan 1937: Dodge Touring Sedan, 2-door with built in trunk Dodge Touring Sedan, 4-door with built in trunk Dodge Sedan 1939: Dodge Six, Canada based on Plymouth. The engineering code can be found in handbook and other technical literature, but it was never published in commercial literature: 1937 Dodge instruction manual This is how Dodge labeled their vehicles, as did many other manufacturers. Why should we pretend that it never happened and invent other ways to name them?	2011-10-14 19:00
