Replying to: magnette (Sep 21, 2008 2:47 pm) It is indeed an ancient (1955) Unimog, early ones didn't wear the M-B Tris-Star for some reason. The other is a 1991 Kewet El-Jet, you know more about it than I do. Nice going, Mag.

Replying to: kyfdx (Sep 22, 2008 12:40 pm) It's not the clearest shot but you need a better monitor. The Mustang is a first Gen ('65 or '66) coupe, the grille opening is too small for a '68. I think it's a '66 as it seems to lake the prominent horizontal grille bars of the '65s You're right about the other two.

#18393 of 23862 Re: "The Streets of San Francisco" (1972-'77)> [andys120] by stephen987 Sep 22, 2008 (2:31 pm)
Replying to: andys120 (Sep 22, 2008 1:56 pm) It's a '66 Mustang. The '65 had diagonal cross-hatch mesh in the grille, while the '66 had the rectangular mesh visible here. If by "prominent horizontal bars" you mean the single horizontal light bar in the middle of the grille, that was a feature of the GT model in both '65 and '66. And I believe the Fiat is a '72 model--earlier ones, at least in the US market, had a single bar bumper rather than the loop style shown here. Just my dumb luck--my folks brought me home from the neonatal ward in their then-new '65 Mustang hardtop, and my own first car was a '70 850 Sport Spider. 903 cc, rated at 58 hp, and allegedly capable of 7000 rpm with pushrods. Not for long, however. The Audi is an early 100 LS or 100 GL--I think '71 was the first year they were sold in the US. They squared up the nose around '73.

Here's a shot from an old early 70's movie called "Slither": Does anybody know what brand that RV is? It's evil looking. I want one.

Replying to: andre1969 (Sep 22, 2008 2:58 pm) It looks like a one off made for the movie, but I'll guess it's based off a Dodge Ram van from the early 70s.
