Rookies don't seem to be too performing this year. Let's move that to the pros.

It´s a 1952 Maverick Sportster from the USA, I think.

Ray B. · January 14, 2008, 12:47:08 PM

And you think right.
Here is the front:

Wow ! That was quick. You're totally correct, and a well-deserved point. I'm surprised we haven't had this puzzle before.

(I think when it was first built it was the largest GRP car in the world)

Nice contemporary pictures anyhow.

We've all had a little moan from time to time about the "search" facility, but it didn't show up when I checked because it probably identified the old puzzle by the title "waddyacallit". How about a standardised format for "solved puzzle" headings, with the make of car as a statutory first word? It could be policed by the editors, and they could amend any titles which might cause future problems. (I know, I know,.... more work!)

It might perhaps help to check your search parameters. Do you have "Search in topic subjects only" activated?
