Expert Posts: 2474 Location: Dalveen, Queensland, Australia | Hmmm... top pic has a Vauxhall Victor and either a Morris Oxford or Austin A60 side by side, though the BMC thing could be a Wolseley 15/60 or an MG Magnette. Second one I see two vastly different Fiats on non-standard running gear, a later model Victor in the distance obscured by a 100E Prefect and this side of a Morris Minor panel van and an early Vanguard station wagon. There's a part of a Mini there on the left, too. Lower one has the usual VW beetle, a Dauphine and an 105E Anglia, but what's that black wagon over in the shade of the tree? | ||

Expert Posts: 3069 Location: Scotland | in the last pic it looks like a Morris Oxford IV Estate car,in the british stock car pic what is the white sporty car in between the Buick and the Plymouth (Peugeot 404 coupe or something italian?). | ||

Expert Posts: 2474 Location: Dalveen, Queensland, Australia | There's simply not enough detail to tell with the white car, but either of your suggestions could be right... On the black wagon, I'd lean more in the direction of an A50/A55 I think. Same mechanical package, anyway! | ||

Extreme Veteran Posts: 466 Location: Southwest VA | hemidave - 2012-01-12 12:16 AM Who is this man? William Paul Shelley Jr. graduated from the University of Florida College of Law in 1939. He practiced law in Tallahassee where he was active in both community and professional organizations. After concluding his four-year service in the U.S. Army, Shelley worked in Washington, D.C., as the administrative assistant to U.S. Sen. Spessard L. Holland. Shelley served as vice chairman of the Florida Bar Legislative Committee in 1967-68. A life member of the Reserve Officers Association, Elks, Kiwanis Club and Kiwanis International, his leadership has had a significant impact in his community. After reaching the 50-year membership in the Florida Bar, he became an inactive member. Shelley has dedicated his support to University of Florida. He served as president of the University of Florida National Alumni Association 1957-58, and was a 1973 recipient of the Distinguished Alumnus Award. | ||

William Paul Shelley, Jr., a life-long Floridian, was born on December 3, 1914 at Telogia, Liberty County, Florida to William Paul and Pauline (Lavender) Shelley. Shelley died at the age of 92 in Tallahassee, Florida on February 4, 2007. Edited by jpmopar 2012-01-12 12:57 AM | ||

Expert Posts: 3588 Location: Plymouth Spaceport | I have to agree with "1960Fury",The 60-61 valiants and lancers are not forward look cars. They were made during the forward look era,but contradict the Forward Look design philosophy. | ||

Nope,I didn't say that either. While those cars are technically de-finned versions of forward look body styles they don't have fins and since they don't have fins I don't consider them forward look cars either. You're more than welcome to think of valiants and lancers as forward look cars because they were made during the "forward look" timeframe,but they dont share the same aesthetic.I simply stated that I agree with "1960Fury".

Posts: 19146 Location: bishop, ca | Actually, I agree with both Mark & 60-DesAdv; the Valiants & Lancers do not appear to be FWDLK models, but, by "birth" ARE to be designated as FWDLK'ers...just as the 62-63 CHRY's/IMP's are not "officially" FWDLK'ers, altho deserve to be FWDLK'ers....it's just that the Valiants & Lancers should not be discriminated against, because they WERE built during the time period 1955 -1961. | ||

I don't disagree,the Valiants have many FL styling cues and the front end looks like a mini 1960 Chrysler. | ||

I don't consider Valiants and Lancers FL to the point of their styling, but I do consider the 62-63 Imps as FL as they still have fins, albeit the fins are cut down, but they ARE there. As to the 62 Chrysler itself, its debatable - all 1962 Chryslers came with Forward Look Logo Keys from factory. And IF you are going to include de-finned 1961 Plymouths as FL - and this site DOES include them, then you MUST include the 62 Chrysler by default, and the 62-63 Imperials.

Location: Parts Unknown | I'll see your 2 cents and raise .... No greater argument could be made against the 62's NOT being Forward Look than Virgil Exner himself disdainfully referring to them as "plucked chickens". Of course, opinions are like axxholes. I just put a little more value on the opinion of Virgil Exner. But that's just me. | ||
