The Indian is a 750 Scout I think, 1930's, what with foot clutch and throttle on the right side.

De Tomaso looks fab in that colour. :D

My money was on Lauren . I also agree, sorry, it is not the best looking of cars but fair play to the owner it was in fantastic condition.

Still no idea Tony.
Dash instruments look Italian like an older Ferrari but don't think it is one of them. Love the gear selector and is that a Farina badge on the steering wheel ?

here you go it's a 1952 Delahaye conv' with electronic gear selection - good spot - reverse has to be in 3rd else the torque tears the transmission apart. All the bearings are white metal and an engine rebuild to you sir a mere 18K. Plus the new upholstery and folding roof.

Supercharged straight eight is what it looks like.
Cam covers look a bit Maserati but not clued up on them as to what models ran chargers. :?
Looks nice though :D

I reckon #3 is an Isetta, the 4-wheel variant with the narrow rear axle. Vented engine cover is another clue...

#1 looks like a Sunbeam Stiletto, but I can't be sure.

#4 looks like a Trabant, frankly.

Definitely agree #5 looks like a SAAB 96.

But who knows???

The 4 wheel Isetta is now pretty rare Lauren. Just one to get.
