            • Yeah, this is a tough one.

              A couple of hints:

              1) It DEFINITELY isn't Japanese.
              2) The company is known more for making commercial trucks.

              That's all for now. I'll let you torture yourselves a little more.

                    Looks like an MGB to me.

                      Festiva fan's got it.
                      The four door is a Ford Consul Classic (315 in non UK markets)
                      The coupe is a Ford Consul Capri (335)

                        It's RHD, implying it's UK, as you say it's not a Jap, but it's not a UK number plate!
                        Iveco?
                        LDV?

                        • It's not English.

                          Another hint:

                          The vintage is early 1950's
                          At the time, it was the world's fastest production car. No racing successes, but voted most beautiful production car.

                          Ok, ANOTHER hint:

                          It also isn't Italian.

                          • FestivaFan Don't be too quick to give it up.
                            While I'm beating myself up on the "worlds fastest production, non Japanese, non-Italian rhd, roadster, I stumbled on some amusing odd balls here....


                            Unrelated but, I'm thinking the world's fastest "production car" in 1956 was the Chrysler 300.

                            • ^ Ok, no more hints. If you get that one, I have some really good fossils that I dug up.

                              This site is Cool!!!

                                Several books, virtually page by page, and five hours on the iNet produced no results. I gave away years of Road & Track mags a few years back. The trapezoid, grill, rhd, leather hood straps, glass over head lights w/chrome bezel... so many clues. Arrggggg.
                                So, unless anyone wants to keep trying, I'm throwing in the towel on this one.
                                Thanks for the challenge.
