    @armyofchuckness: Mopar variations get pretty odd, don't they? Hell, they still manufacture DeSoto heavy trucks in Turkey (although they've had no Chrysler connection other than name in years, I understand).

    Looks like my childhood Dinky Toy collection.


    Do you think the grille badge on the Wolseley 16/60 still lights up?

    Too bad that the Fiat 128 was never offered as a two-door in Argentina. Otherwise, this owner wouldn't have had to weld the rear doors shut.


    Makes me wonder about two things: How's access to the rear, and do the rear windows still roll down?

    The '66 Dart is one of my favorites, and '61 was a good year for Chevy.. but help an under-informed (but eager to learn) cargeek out- what are the tan/maroon thing and the green car that looks like a transmogrifier accident involving a Corvair and BMW 2002?

    Canada Trivia Time!


    That's just a Valiant, not a Dodge. In Canauckistan, Valiant was a stand-alone brand. For a few years in the 60's, the Valiant was basically a Dart body wearing a Valiant nose, until '66 when it went all-Dart. That was the last of its kind, when in '67 Darts and Valiants became pretty much the same as their US counterparts.


    And the Falcon? That old soldier was in production until 1991, which explains the oddball tail and (unseen) headlights.

    @DannyBN: In its first year (1960), The Valiant was a stand-alone nameplate in America too. Not that Canada isn't special or anything-- hey, you got the Acadian Canso, so you've got that going for you...

    The Unimog still has German plates on it. That's a little ironic.

    I just thought it was ironic seeing German plates in Argentina given the history between the two countries.
