Sorry about the small photo, but I’m desperate to slow you guys down. The winner of the Celica Clue was tklockau, who’s guess of a “small bumper (pre-Fed bumper) Celica was close enough, since it appears that the same grille was used through the ’74 models.

Pontiac Firebird, most likely a Trans Am.
This is a 1970-1981 Trans Am. The basic Firebird didn’t have the front fender vents, which the picture above shows. I don’t think the vent changed much through the years, but the black with gold trim suggests a ’76 or ’77 SE.
I’m with tklockau on this one. Trans Am; cos’ the vent wasn’t on the Firebird… as to what year? No idea.
’59 Pontiac Starfire
1978 Trans Am.
looks like a shot of my Hav-a-Hart trap
A Volvo wagon with a ‘keep the dog in the back’ gate.
While I’m not sure about the CC, dave-the-rave’s comment reminded me of the DIO at the Subaru dealership when we bought our Outback many years ago. The screen that went behind the back seat was officially called a pet separator. I always thought that was a wierd name and brought strange visuals to mind.
Sheesh, that didn’t take long.
I’m going to go with 1977 since it appears to be black/gold and that’s the model year of the car in the first (best) movie.
Black and gold Trans Am.
Apparently the guy driving it would go to a minister’s funeral dressed in feathers.
It’s a BBQ grill!
Sheesh!
Please find some European clues to give us overseas readers a chance!
A very macho Trans Am
That mesh just screams “super-high build quality.”
Build quality, as compared to what other 1977 vintage vehicle?
Amen, Mikey.
1977 Honda Accord.
The early Hondas lasted about five years in the rust belt.
I knew it was a “Smokey & the Bandit” model Trans AM (’77) the second I saw it. About 12 other guys, however, saw it before me.
Calm down guys. A Super Duty 455 uses the vents too. The car may have been repainted
And the google investigation I did doesn’t show the same grille.
