OK, me either. However, posting an unknown puzzle as a reply to a puzzle is not how things work here.

As a Rookie at AutoPuzzles (Welcome!

) you must fist solve puzzles. When you have moved to the expert rank, you may begin posting puzzles of you own.

So - any guesses on the car in the first post, above?

Probably this can be added to Information request thread for possible discussion, if the poster doesn't know what it is...

This one is called Maki and comes from Canada, 1965.

No surprise that the poster of multiple aquatic autos has replied thus.

Indeed you are correct, I'll add some detail and award points on the 'morrow.

MAKI (1965)

Made in Canada

1 cylinder engine connected via chain to a solid rear axle. This car, recently sold on e-Bay, was registered for road use. I have another picture of a red car, with what looks to be a semi-rigid windbreak at the rear of the car. I suspect it was used to pull water skiers. This also leads me to believe more than one was built.
