No, the Franke Joker has already been posted as a puzzle. This one has a rather specific name.

Franke did several versions on the Joker.

Coud this be Franke Coupe?

Nope, the name is something else - not a body style name

All I got is two magazines, from '78, and '82. Not much more help in those.

I'm not a kitcar knower either, so this one is hard.

I've not given it up yet, is working too solve this, so don't throw it in the Black hole.
