Posted this roughly twelve hours ago out of boredom, but no one had a clue.
Hint: It is from one of the american big two and a half, however it is not american .
Another hint: It's old
Yet another hint: It came with a quite unusual engine
Maybe someone can finally solve this.
EDIT: Indeed someone got it, it was the 1967 Ford P7a Coupé, known for it's kink slightly ahead of the C-pillar that proved unpopular so the P7 was extensively facelifted after just ten months.
Congrats to My citroen won't start and Ed for solving!

Kadett? I don't know when they appeared but there is probably a 1st gen, right? It's difficult because old Opels are so straight and that's why they're so superb in my mind.

all Kadetts are in beige named "Oliver"

Definetely not. It is a mass-produced family saloon.

OK. Last guess: Opel Diplomat Coupe with Jaguar V12. And I'm fine if it's not the one you were looking for because it's badass!

It's apparently a one-off and no one knows its origins ( http://www.christians-fj1200.de/opel-diplomat-… ). It's awesome. I don't know much about old Opels but all of them look incredibly strong and timeless. The current state of Opel is a shame.

A '67 P7a to be exact, but you won nevertheless. Have a Fiat:

I was way off base going Aussie Mopars. Then you hinted "wrong hemisphere" to someone and I gave up going to work.
Then I gaot an e-mail from a classic car store and kabum!
Got right to Oppo but My citroen won´t start had it already.
