One way you can find out is by watching the Muppet movies and seeing if you can identify the car. If I were you I'd watch the first two movies and look around.

Was it sais whether that car was driven by a Muppet in the movie or by a human? Then again, it could have just been an "extra" (just a parked car in the background, or seen driving with no attention brought to it).

I'm not a car expert so I don't know how to identify car brands and types.

In the Muppet Movie they ended up trading the Studebaker and Gonzo's plumber-mobile for a Ford Woodie. Don't know if that's the same thing or not. that's what they're driving when they meet Piggy and the vehicle dies in the desert.
