Thanks for the lock. #6 is a mercury montery wagon, about 1956.

That's it!

MissingCarsII-9 - '57 Ford Thunderbird

Not number 9. But since you've found a B&W picture of the puzzle pic, I know what you meant. 10 is the the T-bird.

OK, Pro's - now's your time. I'll be away until tomorrow, so please be patient if I don't reply to your guesses before then.

Well done, and with the original pics as a bonus!

#4 That model's attire is a big clue.

#7 What's behind the cars might provide some guidance.

#9 A race car, not a hot rod.

Is #4 a Cheetah?

Not a Cheetah, but you have interpreted the clue correctly.

#4 is a 1965 Buick Wildcat at Detroit Auto Show

Correct!

#7 - no internationally famous prize for getting this one - just a point. (it's the left-most of the two, small, obscured vehicles)

#9 - it's a _ _ _

Wendax · July 23, 2011, 10:36:03 AM

#7 is the Nobel 200

Wendax is right again!

One more to close it out...

Is #9 a CBS then?

Otto Puzzell · July 25, 2011, 03:16:54 AM

No. Read Fred's words carefully.

Wendax · July 25, 2011, 03:38:08 AM

Channel 7 in Melbourne is also known as HSV 7. Is it HSV then?

Otto Puzzell · July 25, 2011, 03:46:49 AM

You've interpreted Fred's words correctly.

But it's not a HSV. But this car is from down under, and has another tie-in with Channel 7

Wendax · July 25, 2011, 03:59:00 AM

It's a JMW. Builder John Wynne can be seen in the picture with two Channel 7 dancers.
