I think you may be correct with number 3 Lou - will leave it a couple more days else Keith will get upset again....CLUE No 5 I'd never heard of but it's Scottish.

Is 5, the door handle an Aston Martin ?

That was my first thought Keith. But after much research I can’t see a model that matches

I'll second #3 as an Esprit, likely an S1 due to apparent lack of interior ruching but difficult to tell from this angle...
Also agree about the Jowett Jupiter (I did briefly wonder about the Javelin, but that has a full-width grille)
Maser is a 1991 facelift model I think.
No idea where the door handles come from, but they are stylish

I go for the Bi turbo and Lotus Esprit as well, but I will be honest not sure of the others.
Those door handles seem to be a kit as I have noticed them on retro fit classic American Muscle, so for that i will say a 69-70
Dodge Challenger or Chevy Camero.

Not Tesla Kev. I think it’s a custom job but very well done I’ve seen lots of US hot rods using those handle kits they look really slick Tesla ones are more oblongular.

As Lou says Kev, these seem to be a popular mod on shows like Fast and Loud (Gas Monkeys) and Bitchin' Rides. Dave Kindig (Bitchin' Rides) has put his name to these kits, they appear to do a few designs.LooLooSud33Spider wrote: ↑Mon Aug 29, 2022 9:56 pm Not Tesla Kev.

I agree Lauren, this obsession with massive diameter wheels with rubber band tyres just doesn't suit those sort of cars.

Pic 1 I’ll take a punt on Bristol
Pic 3 is a Fiat x19
Pic 6 could be a consul classic or a consul Capri - based on colour I’ll go classic.
