Trick question - it says Ford on the side, but it's apparently a concept prototype in the Ford vaults that wasn't destroyed (not sure about that part). It may have been called a Cougar way back before there was a Cougar. It's a very Corvette layout with the seat up against the rear axle, long hood, front engine. Sort of a Miura door post. That's all I know about it.

Gah! I forgot. It was on Facebook and I joined the group -- a sure way to remember it, right? -- and now the group is not in my group list. It's a Russian car... pretty sure a Volga.

That Ford prototype is pretty. I'd say circa 1960...

1948/9 Packard Deluxe Straight 8. Not a US car person but the clue was the Packard name on the trunk. I thought is was a 50 but they have way different tail lights:

The Green Russian car is a 1970's Volga GAZ-24

The red Ford prototype I have no idea. Looks like an Italian mock up. I think this might be it:

Bathtub Packard, a post-war doomed attempt to avoid collapse. Didn't work, and the merger with Studebaker finished them both off.

Straight 8 flathead, Packard quality built, offered at a lower price point they sold well, but after the WWII drought they all did.
