@ Robbie's last post: That's kind of what I was thinking, although I'm not sure. Michael could be right also...

What we have here is a sharply angled, rear engined coupe. My guess is a 70s exotic. Notice the location of the rear axle, and how the engine bay hangs out over it - a very rare configuration.
maybe a Ferrari Daytona
I don't think Ferrari have ever built a rear engine coupe. They put their engines between the driver and the rear axle.
it is definetely De tomaso pantera!
It's not. See above reasoning. Check out a pic of the De Tomaso - it's mid-rear configured.

I know the car. Had a die cast model of it as a kid (mind, that's over 22 years ago) and I kind of forgot the name it had. Something eagle or another.
I'll see if I can dredge up something that far in my personal history.
Oval headlights, very angular cabin, fibreglass bodywork

Eagle rings a bell. Back home someone is selling a kit car with almost the exact the body on it. I'm pretty sure it was called an Eagle. He's only finished it recently. I used to pass his place everyday on the way to school or work (more recently). He had the body sitting outside his garage for about 2 years and it was a pale red colour. Then one day it wasn't there. Half a year later (that's a guess, I can really remember how long it was) the body was on the chassis and it was painted blue. It got alot of attention until it started up. It sounded so rough. It was like a gutless cavalier with a blown exhaust, not nice.

You don't read too well sometimes. He said he found the picture on the internet...
I don't think it's an Eagle. I think it's a kit car...

It looks a lil bit like the car off The Clockwork Orange. No idea what it was called. But it was pretty much the lowest (in height) production car ever, 36 inches.

I almost thought it was a Lotus Europa but I guess the front-end on that car is a bit too long to be one.

That was a 70s era kit car body that fit on a VW bug chassis. There is one in about that same condition sitting behind a friend of mine's house. The picture makes it look longer than it actually is, but when compared to the 62 ranchero behind it, you can see that it smaller than anything even remotely comperablt to a pantera
Is that a packard sitting behind tha ranchero?

the white thing that looks like a truck, right behind the car of topic, is a ranchero. its simalar to an el camino. i think they are actually classified as trucks
a packard I belive is the car right behind the ranchero, the green one, or perhaps is the car right next to it.
hewiit packard i belive is full termonolgy.
i dunno if it is, theres too many old cars that look like that from behind, such as 30-34 fords and 32-35 chevys (years may be slightly off, but in the general area)

If it is not a packard then it is a plymouth, and it has to be mid 40s

A Ford Ranchero , it's an old pickup truck , do you want more info ?
the Packard , it's a very old car built by "packard motors company" , there are lots of models . don't worry about not knowing what is a Packard , because it is 100 years old lol! (the first packard ), but there are some models that went from 1889 till the mid 50's ......

when packard went under in America, all their tooling, and equipment was sold to a Soveit company. I belive they were made there (under another name) for a short time
