Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

What's this classic?

My Dad asked me about the car in the attached picture. The picture was taken in 1973 so the car would have been a classic even then. What he can tell me is that he believes it's an American car, almost certainly a V8. Anyone able to help?

My money is on a Vauxhall 10, car headlamp behind looks like the early
Victor 101.

Or the one behind maybe the Cresta
