The enterprising could make their straps from strips cut from the instruction sheet

There certainly aren't as may cars making the trip across the pond in that direction. Isuzu are often sold as Holden, but a Holden sold as a Mazda? That's just plain weird.

Haha - I've got mad skilz. Especially considering that badge is on the other side of a different car!

You've got worries. I haven't finished last year's one yet.

A few people have found the wrong car now. Some even said it was easy to find...

Remember, don't post any hints or answers here. PM me (NOT Harry!!) with year, make, and model. This one is hard. If you think it is easy, you have the wrong car. Depending on where you look, it is either a 1975-1977, or a 1975-1979 Mazda Roadpacer AP. Essentially, it was an exported Australian Holden Premier rebadged and factory fitted with Mazda's 13B rotary engine. It was a very poor marriage of technology, resulting sluggish performance and poor fuel economy as the 13B struggled to drag around the Holden's mass. http://hooniverse.com/2012/03/16/australo-japanese-luxobarge-1975-79-mazda-roadpacer/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda_Roadpacer_AP

You didn't mail me. Did you mail Harry by accident?

As long as you obscured the answer from your post, it doesn't matter.

Rovin D-4 1950 - 1953 +. The following people got it right. blunc Matt Bacon Badluck 13 GeeBee Foxer dw1603 bobthehobbyguy warra48 bbsbase sjordan2

It's an inverted butter dish with wheels.

Remember, don't post any hints or answers here. PM me (NOT Harry!!) with year, make, and model. Rovin D-4, 1950 - 1953 +. (Final year of production is unknown, though they were advertised for several years after 1953.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rovin

And that is not easy to do!

I nearly typed "Real" for the answer... It's a Model. It even has working electric windows, to give you some idea of the detail. Harry, what's your obvious tell? (assuming it isn't the tires) http://www.craftsmanshipmuseum.com/Zimmermann.htm

All sorts of places. Lego Minifig weapons, for example http://minifigworld.com/

If you know the source of the photo don't post that info here! It ruins the game for everyone else. So what do you think? Real or model? The answer: Model! http://www.craftsmanshipmuseum.com/Zimmermann.htm

I've fixed the commenting problem. Please see the new poll. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/104352-real-or-model-234/

1969 Mazda R100 The following people got it right (within its year range). A surprising number of them got the exact year. Foxer matthijsgrit GeeBee Earl Marischal chunkypeanutbutter Ace-Garageguy ChrisR Badluck 13 bobthehobbyguy dw1603 Zandmann DRIPTROIT 71

Here's mine. Currently armed with a rolled up paper, though... You did ask for it!

Easy for me too. I owned that car

I was lucky enough to see a single one in my life. Quite rare here in Australia. Have a go at Auto ID #168, but this time, please PM me

As someone spoiled the last round before Monday was even over, here, have another. No, it's front wheels are not stock. Remember, don't post any hints or answers here. PM me (NOT Harry!!) with year, make, and model. 1969 Mazda R100 Australian export version. The 1968 and early 1969 version had different side indicators and a longer rear parcel shelf. For the later 1969-70 model, to make more passenger room, they shortened the rear parcel shelf so they could lean the seats back. Of course, tall people would now hit their heads on the window frame!. 1971 saw the R100 updated to Series 2, with modified front suspension, different door handles, different trim, and an even shorter parcel shelf. The model was discontinued in 1973, although in Australia, the 1971 was the last model to be imported. Late in the piece, there was a wide bodied variant. The car shown above was my third R100.
