If anybody can identify this car from that photo, he's an absolute expert, or has personal experience with that model. Any context that you can supply?

Warning: Clicking on any of the other images on that page may or may not make an ad pop up on your screen. I clicked on the image of what appeared to be an intriguingly-modified Corvair, and got a popup ad for online poker. I cannot remember the last time a popup ad made it past my popup blocker.

The shot is from a Twilight Zone episode Ring-a-Ding Girl, if that helps.

Yeah, I tried it and got a pop up too. Must be something image shack is doing to generate ad revenue.

I stated the photo the OP posted was from the Twilight Zone episode Ring-A-Ding Girl.

You said that photo can be from anywhere.

I posted proof it was from the twilight zone episode.

You were wrong.

Admit it for once.

My photo was a uncropped version, which is what I said it was.

Probably what the "American" was based on

American Austin went bankrupt after only four years, then was reborn as the bantam. Bantam is credited for having created the original military jeep.
