Aaaaand, back to the normal Black N White show... What is this? Holden perhaps? Or maybe a Vega or a Pinto? And i'm guessing that it's probably a converted estate car? Anyone know what this little thing of beauty is? I can't explain it, but i keep looking at it and thinking, damn that thing is cool! Apparently there's some Mustangs in this picture, i've been staring at it for like half an hour now and still can't see them, i guess its one of them Magic Eye pictures... I never could do those!

That first car is a pinto, they did sell them that way.

Firstly, what is going on here exactly? And how is this done? Siamese twins?

I read a book about vaudeville performers in the late 1880-1920 era and this was a popular trick, they would have a double made and wear it in a hat upside down. They would claim to be a mute twin type thing but it was a well done dummy.

A few photos from my collection: A couple of young ladies in a 1912 Autobob: A 1915 Argo Speedster: More glamour, this time accompanying a 1916 Renault: and finally for now, a 1921 Detroit Electric - just in case you thought electric cars were a new idea!

My friend at work dropped off some more photos. Again, I can't post them, but there were some stunning photos of various Lamborghinis and Ferraris. There were even some promo photos of the F40 in there, which were breathtaking (although not black and white). Here are the sort of images he brings me (although not these specific ones) Any idea what the little coupe is?

Looks like a Cisitalia 202, but I might be wrong, as usual.

Found out that car 2341 was a Marino-Fiat Coupe.

I know I'm about to sound like an idiot here, but what is that? A Tatra?

Burney Streamline R-100 "travelling at 180mph, it would rise off the ground, so wonderful is it's streamlining" Sounds downright scary to me... quite a modern car for the time when reading about it, I'll let you guys do some digging for yourselves.

Thanks for those Burney photos, Jackeria; the second two I have seen before, but that first one is new to me.
