Replying to: lokki (Jun 29, 2009 10:19 am) It's got Alfa-Romeo written all over it it's probably an early 50s A-R 1900 but I wouldn't know who did the woodie conversion, perhaps Carrozzeria Colli who did a number of Alfa Giulia Estates in the 1960s Replies to this message: lokki (Jun 29, 2009 12:29 pm)

Replying to: lokki (Jun 29, 2009 9:31 am) 1946-47 Nash, I'd assume the woody was a highline model, so Ambassador.

Replying to: andys120 (Jun 30, 2009 3:20 am) Fiat 131 Mirafiori, ca. 1975. From the wheel trim, it looks to be a European-market model, probably with the 1300 cc engine. US models had bigger wheels and the twin-cam 1756cc engine from the 124 Spider. Replies to this message: andys120 (Jun 30, 2009 5:09 am) stephen987 (Jun 30, 2009 6:01 am)

Replying to: stephen987 (Jun 30, 2009 4:48 am) Yep, it's a '78. Besides the wheel trim, the rectangular headlights and relatively small side marker lights are giveaways that it's the Euro-spec 131. US-spec models were sold as Fiat Bravas. Replies to this message: stephen987 (Jun 30, 2009 6:01 am)

Replying to: andys120 (Jun 30, 2009 5:09 am) Actually, in the US they were sold as 131s from 1975-77. The Brava name came on in '78, initially for the super-luxury version. In '79 and '80 Brava was the base 131, and Super Brava was the luxury version.
