picture post in thread. It’s for a friend, and this is the best pic he has. I was thinking some sort of Pontiac, but I can’t find anything with a B-pillar that thick. ---

Can’t be that - wrong headlights. The headlights look GM but the hoodline looks Lincoln. Hence my confusion. ---

the earlier-mid-70’s Monacos had horizontally-oriented round headlights in pods. They did not have wrap-around sidemarker lights like this one does. The later-mid-70’s ones had vertically stacked headlights. ---

I’m almost certain it’s a mid-70s Ford. With a late-'60s/early-70s Triumph Spitfire in front of it. And perhaps an early-70s Chevy Nova II behind it. ---

The fullsize GM cars of that era all had a “Landau” vesion of the 2 door hardtop. This tacky design had tiny rear windows, and an ill-fitting padded top. Rear seat pasengers really got claustrophobia. There is a guy in my neighborhood who has an immaculate 1976 Chevrolet 2 door with this treatment. At least that one had somewhat larger rear windows. From the looks it could be a Chevy, Pontiac, Olds or Buick. ---
