I hate to rain on your parade, but that's not a photo of a Tucker Torpedo. This is its interior:

Incredibly obscure. Maybe. Not quite sure really. Very unique car for it's time.

If you need more convincing, compare the window line above to the window on the Tucker 48 (AKA Torpedo):

EDIT: Oh, and @GranTurismo916, I believe that's a Subaru Legacy.
 
@Dagger311 : You never heard of Cord??? Are you really an american?:P They where first with front wheel drive. I think they also where the first to feature retractable headlamps.

edit, the current one is indeed a Subaru, but I don't know which one...

Actually, FWD has been around since before 1900. And there were a number of FWD cars produced in the late 20s and 30s, the most prominent being the Citroen Traction-Avant. The Cord is still an incredible car, though.

Never heard of them.
 
Never heard of them.
Ok, well, you have now:) Cord is a big part of the automobile history, especially the american automobile history.:P

I dont really care for old cars, and I dont really care for american cars, but there actually are alot of american cars from the 20's, 30's, 40's and 50's I really love, Cord is one of them, Tucker is another.

It's not a Torpedo or a Cord.

That's a Hudson Terraplane.
 
They made a big mistake with that photo. It's all good, have another go :cheers:

EDIT: I just noticed that they also used a photo of a car with eight exhaust pipes to show how the Tucker has six exhaust pipes.
Damn :lol:. Not getting advice from then again :P.
 
I'll just go ahead then.

This one is super easy, if you are sure you are right, use google for confirmation, and feel free to post a new one, im off to bed, goodnight.

It has to be off of a real car, this is a Logitech G27 or G25 Shifter. The part that would give which one it is away is hidden by the knob.
