What is this.

A very well kept Chevrolet. No idea which model. Car is huge and would look beautiful if it were lowered and had white-walled tyres.

Not too sure, the rear looks like a W100 600...but the lights in the front are different.

It looks very similar to the W110 and the 200 series from the 1960s..

Cheers Ed...

Thats a W110 Merc E Class. Here's the evolution of the E Class :

Top to Bottom: W120, W110, W114, W123, W124, W210, W211 (current)

this is a 1930s austin six...relatively popular amongst classics in india...

karlosdeville · 8th July 2006, 23:55

well since this seems to be the place to post pics for vintage cars, here goes nothing...ive got around 5000 pics clicked over the years, heres a few of them...!

my friend aditya kelkars super beetle....1600cc, and used EVRY DAY!

1957 dodge kingsway...completely original and unrestored, down to the leather! of pheroze mehta in bombay...

1958 Fiat 600 at the fiat factory in kurla...damadged during floods and not moved since!

gathering of old fiats at a previous club meeting...

yohann poonawallas 1937 Rolls Royce Phantom III...a most imposing beast!

Ramesh thakkers immaculately restored Jag XK120...mindblowing...! also his 1925 Rolls by Barker...when purchsed, she had covered a genuine 429 miles! to date it isnt more than 600 miles!

a fabulous 1966 Standard Herald mark II...driven by a lady in pune daily from day one till early this year when it was sold...

pics clicked at various rallies to follow...

all pics have been clicked with owners knowledge and am sure dont have issues about the numberplates.

cheers

A true connoisseur of vintage cars, I see. Nice pictures. The XK120 is blissful.
