Sweet wheels

I dropped in at the Sri Lankan car show to check out the wheels. The new cars were pretty average, unless you get exited over the latest Mercs or middle of the road Toyotas.
I was more interested in the classic motors and this was my favorite, perfect for wheel spinning away from the lights in Santa Monica or some other Californian city. I think it's a 60's version of the Mustang as I seem to remember the one from the Rockford files being bigger and more muscular.
My boss was exhibiting an old Triumph, which was one of a batch donated by the Queen to Sri Lanka after the war.I looked for a Sunbeam Talbot as my dad's doing one up but there weren't any that old; the only Sunbeams were these two, one of which is an Alpine.Last of my pick is this pimp Merc. I seem to be a sucker for two seaters with white wall tyres going by these pics.
