Is that an Opel Manta in the background?
I think it's a Capri (English Ford). 70's era.

How about this nice round body 2-door wagon. This is on sale @ EBAY (not mine). Fun car.

I "googled" images for the Opel Manta and Mercury Capri and found the following. They do look similar, but the shape of the back window is different.

While I was looking at Opel pictures I saw this nice looking 1964 Opel Rekord. The front grill at least appears very similar to a 1963 Falcon's. The vertical fins on the front fenders are nice. The 1961 Plymouth Valiant had horizontal front fender fins. Those would have opened another car up like a can opener in a collision.
