Keep a look out for what certainly looks like "Rostyle wheels".

Pretty close. It's a Buick so I'd say they are the American version, Magnum 500s.

You need to study up on your Yank Tanks Ron. :wink: That's another Thunderbird, 1958-60. Not sure which, there wasn't much difference between them.

 

[SydneyRoverP6B]

You are spot on KR, I do indeed need to brush up on the Yank Tanks..

So many great tracks from the 1980s.

Yer baby! Apparantly Austin was very offended during the making of the video by Madonna placing parts of her body (and one part in particular) against his face.

Their Girl singer, Sina, was my flatmate Petes girlfriend ( + later he became her manager + was he who named "OMC": Otara Millonaires Club )

Pauly Fuemana no longer with us... in a case of life imitating art, this song made Pauly a millionaire

GW

 

[SydneyRoverP6B]

I do remember that track GW back in the 80s. Had not heard it again till you posted it.

Here is one from REM. No classic car, but a classic Peterbilt instead.

My favourite music vid with a classic car in is 'Would You Wake up the Sun?' but then I'm biased as we helped make it!

Blur used a P5 in their video "For Tomorrow"

I always thought fairground attraction used a P6 in the video for "Pefrect" looking at it again I find it is something else, maybe a Vauxhall??

That one in "Perfect" looks like a P5 with the pail roof, but I'm not sure the tail lights are right for a P5, It's only a glimpse mind you !

 

[arthuy]

Not something I recognise. Def not an P5, it is much smaller, the rear number plate is odd and the rear lights appear to have a verticle and horizontal section.

Vauxhall Victor FB, and IIRC with those lights it could be a VX4/90

Dont think i ever saw the vid for that before... Blur definitely liked their classics early on! That's 3 by them so far on this list...

The Pretenders and "Brass in Pocket" with a pink Cheverolet. Well at least I think it is a Cheverolet.
