Your Wood and Pickett guess is so close Lauren I'm almost tempted to give it but seeing as it's you ...No. Lol
Fair enough - I couldn't think of any other coachbuilders that did Mini conversions. Should have just said "Mini hatchback" :D

Did I get any of the others right then?

An extra one.IMG_0023.JPG
Stumped on this one. Initially I thought "Tatra", but then I realised that the vent was the wrong way round :D

Like so many of these puzzles I am sure I am going to kick myself when I see it, I am so sure I have seen it before somewhere...

One for Kev I think but it looks like a Lancia Flaminia Berlina. Not quite as dramatic as the coupe, but compared to an Austin Westminster I know which one I would choose!

The bonnet and wing badges made me think a bit?

I first thought the "star of the show" one was a Lancia, inset grille looks Flavia but the bonnet scoop isn't, and it's only single headlights, Farina badges on the wings, Flaminia has the bonnet vent/scoop but different, and the side repeaters/bumpers/front indicators and lack of badge in the centre of the grille put me off saying Lancia.

Bristol was my thought?

The red one is a Fiat 128 coupe

Viva is a Magnum, poverty spec viva didn’t have the chrome trim across the back ?

The rear end round lights are Datsun of some form (308 gt4 has rectangle lenses)

Edit, Keith is right, I’m wrong it is a 308 gt4

I really want to say Honda nsx for the yellow one, but they only have the single scoop, unless there’s a specific version or kit with the extra lower one.
