Some fun for the nightshift, was browsing some wikipedia and stumbled on this picture:



So, I'm not an expert on old American cars, but I'm giving it a try (those I'm practically sure of):

Left to right, top to bottom
1)
2) Corvette C3
3)
4) Dodge Charger
5)
6)
7)
8)
9) Ford Mustang fastback

I'm sure someone can fill me in.

I think Number 1 is a Plymouth Road Runner, it has a flat line along the arch:



The GTO is a round arch (I don't think there was a flat arch!)




Stunning cars though either way!

NICE!

Though I was pretty sure that's a C3 corvette, not a C2

I was pretty sure about that too. Shame my keyboard didn't agree with me though.

No1. Looks like a Buick Wildcat (but I've had 5 pints so probably wrong).

Nice! Almost all stunning cars.
I knew the PH massive would solve this one in a jiffy.

Just based on c-pillars and wheelarches... nice.
