Wasn't that the BMW 3 series?

I'd say it was much more 'inspired' by the Vauxhall Victor FB!

Isuzu used to have something to do with the old Hillman Minx in the 60s if I recall?

I like the look of the pale blue one, well kept, lowered and on Minilite lookalikes - must be a PH'r!
What is the grille reflection of in the pic?

One modded Bellett finished the 1000 Lakes Rally in the mid 60s causing some surprise.

I think Isuzu means Fifty Bells or Hells Bells, can't remember which? hehe

Is it not the dashboard vents of the vehicle it's photographed from?

What's interesting is if you use Google Lens in Chrome to do a reverse image search it also comes up with that but a front on view smile

Clever stuff ..
