You are mad, Mr. RC45. and Sadistic. I thought it was a volga, but its grill isn't that wide.

Hey - this one should be easy 
You have a distinct headlight shape and trim - a unique grill, chrome side trim - hood corner and quite distinct turn signals... 
Any astute car spotter should at least be able to guess the general family this motor belongs to...

Mid 30's Europeans, South Africans and Australians should probably get this one pretty easy.
There is a good chance that your parents/elder borther/sister had a used one as a firt car And youhave either seen it or photos.
Or you are just good.

^^ Nice close guess... (I have a few obscure Holdens in the "Trivia lineup for next week... )
But think European cousin of the ubiquitous GM family saloon

Well, if nobody puts another pic, there goes this one.
Pretty obvious, I think.

Damn, I guess there must just be a bit of a resemblance throughout the family of that age.
