    Help!

    I see a car every day on my ride home from school that I need home identifying. it has four front lights, and they are in the grill[black] and its a coupe. Its not an old muscle car, I can tell you that. Its yellow and it looks similar to an Alfa-Romeo Montreal but im positive its not. Please if any one has any ideas it would put my mind at ease. [Please post pics if you have any ideas]. Thanks!!!

    Is it possible it's a kit-car? From the side-profile of that Montreal, that you're comparing this mystery car to, I'd take a wild guess that it's an old Elan. (Lotus)

    I didnt mean like the side profile, just the frontal appearence. The rims were also black and they had the same general design as those on the Montreal.

    The 1st thing came to mind was the DeTomaso Mangusta.

    How about an Iso Grifo ? The DeTomaso was derived from it.

    on the picture left is a Bizzarini 3500 (GT?).On the right is a Iso Grifo.

    The Iso was exported to the USA quite a lot compared to the numbers sold in europe.
    The engine inlet doesn't need to be like this.This one is a 7 litre. A five litre engine was also available.These had other engine air inlets.
