Does anyone know what the grey car next to the RM is?

Maybe a Lancia?

Could be, I was wondering if its a Wolseley but not sure

Looks similar to prewar Horches, but hard to tell from this angle.

[NomduJour]

Looks like an IFA F8 (same as a pre-war DKW F8).

Should be saved, rare and worth a fair chunk once restored.

You may have it, the grill/badge looks right although the louvres are confusing; there doesn't seem to be a changeover, as though they were sold with both styles(two rows of small louvres or one row of large as here) from 49 to 55.

Maybe a Borgward with the diamond badge on the grille?

[GeneralBanter]

WW2 Dodge - probably ex Vietnam war. Very restorable.

[GeneralBanter]

Outlasted 99% of the UK production.

[Mikebentley]

Those cars are suffering in Thailand though. They are being eaten away.

No, it's really an Ifa F8.

You missed the Canadian Military Pattern (CMP) truck and M3 Halftrack.

Better views here



The collector might have spent a lot of time in Germany buying up stuff; there are various AutoUnions, Borgwards, Lloyds, Trabants there.

Quite a few Austin 1100s in Thailand (maybe Australian made). The yard also seems to have various Morris Minors, a Triumph Dolomite.

I pass these most days.
To the more knowledgeable, one on the left and the middle one?
