Who is he, and what car can he be associated with?
(sorry I couldn't find a better picture)
Art and cars. Painters, writers, musicians, actors, movie makers: in a nutshell, artists. Cars of special importance in their work, or in their life.

Rule is: you identify the artist, you have one week to find the car. After that, the hunt is opened and anyone can rob you of your point.
Thanks!

As this is a hard one, I make it a two-point puzzle.
Two clues:
Recently, several artists of the same kind have been identified.
This man, and the car we're looking for, were associated with a man you can find in another of my recent puzzles.

Now, let's move it to the true pros' board.

Niet (but nothing russian about him).

Clue time.

While an illustrator and not a car designer, this man designed for a friend a car who has been the subject of a solved puzzle.
The other car we're looking for was also featured in a solved puzzle.

You did it!
Were my clues too obvious or did you need a little brainstorming?

Here is another picture of Coby Whitmore at the wheel of the car. He should have kept the mustache and watched his weight, if you ask me. But a great artist anyway.
Then, another picture of the car (and a period pic), who has been the subject of another puzzle (and not pointed as a repost).

It sure was, and I think I knew it when I posted this one 6 months after.
