Picture taken at Goodwood in 2008. For some reason I can't remember what they actually are! I was so enamoured with the depth of field shots, I forgot to take easily identifiable shots of the actual car.

Hoping the PH collective can put up a few suggestions...

The saloon is a Jag/Daimler 420

I'll get back to you on the venty job but I suspect Ferrari

...and on perusing quickly my big book of classic Ferraris, I'm going to take a punt on something from the 330GT series, though from that pic I cant narrow it down to a particular body style

The one that isn't a jag looks rather like a Shelby Mustang.

One down, one to go then!

I think it's going to be next to impossible to get a bead on the one in the foregroud in a definitive manner.

Based mainly on the flared arch, I'm going to say it's a Ferrari 275gts.

I thought that yesterday, but upon viewing a photo realised that the vent housing is all wrong. It's not a 275.
I don't know what it is. biggrin

It isn't a Jensen Interceptor as they only had 1 vent behind the front wheel and the Jensen FF only had 2. smile

Can anyone enlarge the lower picture in sufficient clarity to see the reflection of car 2 in the Jag's paintwork???

Nice idea, but it looks like car 2 is out of shot.



330 GTC gets my vote.
