The Creative Explorer Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 Where did you find that? What's the story behind it? I have no idea what the story is, but I jammed in some terms for a google search for the Car ID game, and in between the results, this appeared. And I really liked it. I'm sorry there is no more to it hahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scale-Master Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 (edited) The OP's picture is correctly identified as the Bertone Mustang (1965). Here is a link about it: http://www.carstylin...5_ford_mustang/ The one I posted is the Allegro Roadster made from the Allegro Coupe.

Art Anderson Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Where did you find that? What's the story behind it? The Bertone Mustang 2+2 was commissioned by Automobile Quarterly Magazine (OK, so it's a hard back, but still a quarterly publication) in 1965. Made the rounds of a lot of car shows back then, but at last I heard, it has disappeared from view, nobody seems to know what became of it.

Junkman Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 (edited) Bertone, like other Italian coachbuilders, loved to tinker with American running gear. Here is his take on the '63 Corvette, called the Rondine: Edited April 21, 2012 by Junkman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
