From Wikipedia:
The Jaguar XK120 is a sports car manufactured by Jaguar between 1948 and 1954. It was Jaguar's first sports car since SS 100 production ended in 1939.
Los Jaguar XK son automóviles deportivos que fueron producidos por la marca Jaguar desde 1948 hasta 1961. Tuvieron un impacto sin precedentes en las ventas del fabricante inglés, y fueron los primeros automóviles nuevos producido en su totalidad por la firma tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Fue revolucionario en su época y un éxito instantáneo. Este modelo hoy en día es considerado como un icono del automovilismo de todos los tiempos.
El Jaguar XK fue concebido con el propósito de introducir un flamante nuevo motor Jaguar XK obra de William Heynes, un seis cilindros en línea de 3,4 litros de cilindrada y un excelente nuevo chasis simplemente con la intención de generar publicidad y posiblemente ganar unas cuantas competencias y así incrementar las ventas de los sedanes.

1955 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad 1:24 Motormax











The Chevrolet Nomad was a station wagon model made off and on from 1955 to 1972, and a Chevy Van trim package in the late 1970s and early 1980s, produced by Chevrolet. The Nomad is best remembered in its two-door 1955–57 form, and was considered a halo model during its three-year production as a two-door station wagon.
Chevrolet Nomad is a nameplate used by Chevrolet in North America from the 1950s to the 1970s, applied largely to station wagons. Three different Nomads were produced as a distinct model line, with Chevrolet subsequently using the name as a trim package.
Marketed as a halo model of the Chevrolet station wagon line for the Tri-Five series, the Nomad was repackaged as a station wagon counterpart of the Chevrolet Bel Air and Chevrolet Impala from 1958 to 1961. From 1968 to 1972, the Nomad returned as the base-trim Chevrolet Chevelle station wagon.
Making its debut on a 1954 concept car, the nameplate has again seen used by Chevrolet on multiple concept vehicles; none have reached production.
