Hmmm--what is that Studebaker? I can't all the pictures to load on dialup,
so only got the sideview of one. Its a Hawk--is this the 57 Golden?

I went to Babelfish and got a bad translation from the Portugese. It seems
that the "collection" stems from likely the 1974 era, when Portugal shifted
back from Fascism. Looking at the cars--and the speculations of the
posters--it might have been 'property" of connected people of the old
regime, or other assets put into hiding by divorcing soccer stars,
industrialists etc etc. Lots of *RARE* (like the 504 Peugeot
Cabriolet--which is nothing like a Pug 504 sedan or wagon) and but only
somewhat valuable cars. I didn't notice any supercar/really exotic== no
Lambo/ISO/Maserati or RR cars. One car had a "D" (Germany) sticker--might
some have been stolen? Lots of significant sports cars-Lotus 7 (The Prisoner
fame), Elan and Lancias, rare BMWs, and MB, Opal, Fiat, Skoda, and some
North American cars, especially Pontiac, Chrysler, Oldsmobiles (like a
4-4-2?) and the like. Mixed in were some pretty middle class and upper
middle class type cars--Ford Taunus, Opal Record sedans, big Lancias, MB .
Interesting (to me) were the *MG Magnette* and the *Lancia Appia* sedans!
Why? because they were cars that no-one collected for various reasons, and
are now almost unknown and non-existant, especially the Appia!! (I know one
person who found one, and he knows just how rare they are)

It is an odd, very odd, agglomeration of vehicles, but I would guestimate
that the cars are worth millions, some just because they survived. One
Lancia Flaminia alone was quoted at 67,000 Euros value.

There appears to be a 57 Gold Hawk showing the left rear fin and part of the
trunk.

The maroon car on the left actually looks to be a 47 or 48 Kaiser. The
two maroon cars are also shown in the green Model A picture
