How do you post up cars here without giving away the name? I either get nothing to show or you guys can somehow find the name on the file even though nothing is shown. I'm getting madder and madder that I cannot participate. :rolleyes::D:lol::angry:

Gregg, all you do is when you find the picture, and save as, type whatever you want in the box before you save. :lol:

When you import the file into your computer, change the name then. I believe when you right click on something in the PC world(Mac user), you have an option of "save as...". You need to use that function. When you do, there is a chance to rename the file. just click in the box with the file's name and type what you want in place. After they are on your hard drive, I'm not sure on your machine.

I hope I helped a little bit. :rolleyes:

um, that would make it harder for us to get it though , wouldn't it? With my first one, the name was written on the photo and nobody noticed. I took it as honesty, like not reading the answers that are printed right under the car themed crossword in our Saturday paper.

It looks like pininfarina styling from the late 60s- early 70s. I was going to guess Opel but I really don't know and don't have spare time to find out.

I am thinking German, maybe first gen Rabbit/Golf, maybe a Scrocco or Cab. I can't think of anything else that square where the tail light is amber and dosen't wrap around corner... but the it's real dark on my screen can't see much of the pic.

First Gen VW Scirocco

Really would Love to get my Paws on the New Sciro, but it doesn't look like it's ever going to hit the States within 10yrs... :lol:

Whatever it is now, I don't know..... I can tell you that car rolled off the assembly line originally as a VW Scirocco, around 75-78 vintage. That pic is quite the amalgamation of 80's stuff. I see maybe Ford LTD or Granada front clip. Weird!!!

....and YES to Dragon7665! CORRECT!

I thought it might of been a Scirocco.

Yeah wierd is right.

They took Dr Porsche's Lohner-Porsche 100 year-old concept and modernized it into a $300,000.00 Briggs and Stratton Hybird concept car.

geez, way to steal my picture! ;);)

I read in SCC that it won't be coming to the US......AT ALL, just in European countries, which they said they are kind of glad.. :lol: not sure why.

what year? :lol:

what year? ;)

No way to tell from your pic. All of the first gen years had the same tail lights. Give us a pic without as much cropping. You gotta play fair! :lol:

Posted
Well Rob has my pic!!! :lol:

Trying to be cleaver and change the color ;)

Ummm lets see now could it be a '76?

Posted

I used this picture manager and I clicked the add texture option or whatever and it made it brighter.

and yes ;) ......it is a 76, well, it says 75 and 76. :lol:
