Two and twenty rust-heaps, baked in a puzzle.  :)

For many of you Autopuzzlers, identifying shiny new cars and lovingly preserved and/or restored cars is a snap. The pictures that follow are representative of what happens to most old cars - either left to rot in a salvage yard, stripped and abandoned on a city street, or, in some cases, undergoing a restoration to their previous level of luster. Some are (or were) everyday-common, others much less so.

How many of these incredible hulks can you identify?

Opinionated but sometimes wrong

Tifosi

#9 appears to be 1963 Dodge, either a 330, 440 or Polara.  #1 looks like it might be a 1970 Plymouth Sattellite.

Very difficult, I would have preferred to see more european post war cars.

I will start with same guesses now

1: US
2: US or Italy
5: US or russian
7: continental Europe
8: french
9: US
10: US
12: this one is the toughest carquiz I have ever seen the only detail I can see is the rear window, so I have checked Ford Consul (UK), Ford Capri (Europe), E-Type, 911, I do not believe any of these are correct
13: british
15: US
16: US
17: US
19: italian
21: US


Thank you

While I try to make the mix of puzzles I post balanced, I have not gone so far as to employ national origin quotas.  :-\

For what it's worth, you are incorrect on three of your country of origin guesses.  ;)
