Wow. A lot of cool stuff that you don't see very often.
 
That Opel in the first picture reminds me a lot of my 1977 Datsun B210. (That was a great little car)
 
Behind the yellow Honda, a 1955 Mercury.
 
Is that green MG the Chinese version?
 
No; that green MG is an MG F which was built in the UK. That car later morphed into the MG TF which is the one you are thinking about which was built in China.

I thought that Opal was a B210 also....

One of my friends in Virginia had a B210 4-door - it was borderline amazing. He was half homeless at times and the car got no routine maintainence, but it just kept going and going and going, Eventually it rusted to the point it wouldn't pass Virginia's inspections and we were very sad to have to drive it to the scrapyard. If I had play money and place to keep it I'd find one, just because it seemed almost mechanically indestructible.

We bought our B210 (2 door coupe) new in 77, shortly after our first son was born. We needed an affordable, practicle little car and that fit the bill. I can still recall the amazing about of stuff we hauled around in that thing when we moved from Gt Falls to New Mexico (for my school). Had the son and the dog in the back seat with "stuff" crammed in every nook and cranny and in the trunk, along with a Uhaul cartop carrier full of household items. It was amazing how much stuff we were able to carry with us.
