We had a very similar conversation on another forum im on... the hamb. Some of the guys there are ridiculous! I've seen them identify cars buried in river banks by the shape of a door latch.

But it also looked like a mid 60's car, so there'd be little chance it was Italian given the American V8 (only Iso and DeTomaso come to mind). So British it was, and I went from there. According to the wiki, there were only 10 ever assembled before their NY plant shut down.


Just a little brain food for you drunk munchkinzz
I would guess alpha too. It looked a little big for alpha though.

Looks more like the Intermeccanica torino... which is an offshoot of the original car. Wrong wheels, door handles, tail light, window mouldings... etc for the 600. I'd bet money it's a torino.

My money is that it's the John Wilkens torino. And yes this is the first time I opened this thread.....
First thing that came to my mind was the Torino/Italia too, I guess I didn't realize it was related to the Griffith but now I know...
