At the risk of appearing dumb, is the red car a Tiger Avenger?

I think they were all moredoor. That kick in the back window looks Japanese to me my guess would be Mazda or Datsun

I believe the escort is all the owners work and the engine is from a Subaru impreza .

It is in fact a 1970s Fiat 128 sport

Really? That's embarrassing as I used to own a 128 3P!

Ha Ha

That's even more impressive as they rusted faster than the Japanese stuff back then

Very true, I also had a Datsun 120y that was only held together by the rust molecules holding hands.

Some of the molecules unfortunately were amputees as well

But these jap cars were to change the world of motoring !!
