Good Morning, Oppo

An interesting collection of cars here. I'm pretty sure this is at the San Diego airport, the former Lindbergh Field. I'll let one of you petrolheads guess at the year.

I guess 1976! That wagon and the car behind it are the reason I didn't say mid 60s

@ibrad

My eye was immediately caught by the Datsun B210, which my google tells me was produced 1974-1978.

[ibRAD]

@ttyymmnn I didn't even notice that one! Hidden pretty good. I saw the beetles first, of course, and then the corvette. I bet he's one of the pilots.

[Just Jeepin']

Any chance someone could ID (even approximately) these left to right? I'm mostly in the dark.

[ttyymmnn]

@just-jeepin

Well, I've got two Beetles, a Better, is that an AMC wagon?, a Datsun Z of some flavor, B210, no idea, no idea, and I really want to know what that SUV-ish thing is on the far right.

@ttyymmnn Wagon appears to be a Volare or Aspen. Those were built '76-'80. In conjunction with the B210, I'd say '76-'78.

There you go. I knew I recognized it, but couldn't come up with the name. I always kind of liked the B210 when I was a kid. I would have been 10-12 when this photo was taken.

[Roundbadge]

@ttyymmnn I'd have been 1-3.

Now you've got me thinking of a picture that was posted to either Jalop or Oppo a number of years ago, taken around this time of year not far from where I am now. I need to look that up again.

[RacinBob]

@roundbadge My money is on the wagon being a Mercury Zepher or maybe a fairmont.

That would put this more like '79 to '81 or later if not new....
The car next to is a 280Z which also came out in '79 and sold till '83.

[RacinBob]

@ttyymmnn I am guessing the white convertible is a Peugeot 504 convertible.....If it was, it is a very rare car....

[RacinBob]

@ttyymmnn My other guess is a Rambler Convertible. Also rare.

[fintail]

White "convertible" towards the right doesn't appear to be a convertible at all, rather, a ~67 Falcon coupe with a vinyl top. SUV thingy at right appears to be a ~1950 Suburban.

Wagon is definitely an Aspenlare, Z appears to be a 260Z

[Roundbadge]

@racinbob I was beginning to think you're right, regarding the Fairmont...by virtue of the C-pillar...but if you look at the location of the turn signal, I'm going back to the Aspen/Volare. The bowl hubcaps push me in that direction too...not that someone couldn't wheel-swap a Fairmont...

@ttyymmnn @Roundbadge

[WhoIsTheLeader]

The rest have been ID'd but pretty sure that large wagony truck thing is an old Suburban.

[RacinBob]

@ttyymmnn DIng Ding Sing Winner!

Volare Wagon. Its the only one with the side marker in the right place!

@ttyymmnn Datto 120Y!
