We spotted this curvy sports car all covered up on the streets of LA. Any thoughts on the make and model?? Weigh in after the jump…

Batmobile, duh.
At first glance, looks like an early 70s corvette, but the elongated roof top would suggest otherwise…. it’s a tough one….
My guess is some sort of old Jag.
Steven Beeven- good call on the Batmobile..what year?
my money is on it being either something vintage and British (i.e. Jag, MG, Austin, Morgan) or the long shot…a Dino
tough one though
What the hell? Who are you guys? You think someone would leave a dino on the street in this fashion? What kind of old Jaguar could that possibly be? Looks to me like it’s probably a crummy vw kit car.
My first thoughts were also a Jag.
Yo what kind of Jags are you guys looking at? what feature here looks Jaguarish? Is this the car blog for people who don’t know anything about cars? I am going to go uncover this and it will be the first post on my new blog. about cars.

Looks pretty close. Not identical, but surely not so far off as to warrant ROB’s criticisms.
My guess (unfortunately) is a 70′s Kit Car
Probably a Bradley GT or Bradley GT II
Good call Phil – you might be onto something there – Nick is checking out the true identity and will report back shortly -
Lets put some real money on this before the big reveal. It could be good for readership?
That Bradley GT that Phil called out seems like a pretty good bet.
def a kit…it should be under a cover.
Maserati?
yes jim, it’s a maserati.
Man, we sure are lucky to have Rob here. He must know a TON about cars. I hope he comments again and again. I’ll hold my breath.
as soon as it’s revealed I’ll be gone. I have no other reason to come back here but the burning desire to see the mg/healey/jaguar/ferrari dino/rolls royce/toyota camry/pt cruiser that is hiding under this tarpaulin.
PT Cruisers make me want to vomit and make me think that something is terribly wrong with the design and development process at Chrysler (aside from their recent art-deco obsession)
My first thought was that the roofline matches an Adams Probe 16, but the elongated hood/nose is out of place! A Bradley GT would be my second guess but the ugly box section sill in the “reveal” is too crude even for Bradley..its the sort of thing Dutton would do, but I don’t think Dutton’s were imported to the US! Need to think some more about this one!
I haven’t seen one of these Bradley GTs for a while – it looks crappy even under the cover
