One for Mr Z, Which film

I wonder if it could be a 1955 Jaguar XK140, Loewy Custom

Penned by Raymond Loewy who designed for Studbaker cars. He also designed among other things, steam locomotives, Hillman Minx, Lucky Strike Logo, Chubb logo, Greyhound busses, Exxon & Spar logos and the interior of Concorde.

The car is probably a 3.8 ltr 6 cylinder, infomation is a bit thin on the ground,

Well done Simon -  a FULL 7 points.

How did you know?

In 1956 Raymond Loewy designed a sports car for Jaguar. Loewy had left Studebaker in 1955 and gone abroad to build a series of sport coupes. Among these were the Jaguar in 1956, a BMW 507 roadster displayed at the 1957 Paris Auto Show, and a Lancia, unveiled in 1960. These rare photos of the Loewy Jaguar are from the Gottscho-Schleisner Collection in the Library of Congress. The fate of this unique Loewy treasure is unknown. The popular Jaguar XK-E, designed by Malcolm Sayer only a few years later in 1961, was a radical interpretation of Jaguar traditions. In 1961 Sayer's XK-E could only be thought of as revolutionary and must certainly have influenced Studebaker president Sherwood Egbert's mandate for the Avanti. Loewy's proposals to the Avanti design team (in March 1961) to minimize chrome; avoid decorative moldings; stress long, down-slanted hood; abbreviate rear and tuck under, and pinch waistline, as le Mans-type racing cars were more characteristic of the radical new XK-E than his own earlier Jaguar proposal.

Thank you Mr Bear.
It does indeed look GT40 ish, but is, in fact, a Fiberfab Bonito from Germany.
But no Ford V8 power for this one, it's based on a VW Beetle 

Let's have another black one.

And back to the red ball - what can you tell me about this one

[Lazy B'stard]

Some sort of Pontiac? Dodge?

[nopanic - neil]

OK - American car shown here, but was made with another manufacture (from another country) in a 50/50 partnership.

So sold under 2 names, - durring mid 90's

Need to know the Manufacture name used for promoting this range and it's model name.

This is the second generation version of the car.
