One Port Rancidness

Is it one car's name?
I can see Princess in there, and Tornado, but other than that can't make anything else out!

There's Pontiac as well, but I'm sure it will be something more obscure than that.

I'm assuming that the answer will be in Autopuzzles somewhere, so I'm not going to offer Nondescript Señora or Censored porn stain.

Then I've been searching for a car called the Sandon Eco Sprinter, and a figure from motoring history called Dennis Crapton-Rose, but without any success.

And "endoscope" keeps falling out, but I won't labour that point.

I'm sure the right answer will turn up eventually.

The make and model (2 words total) make up the answer. The Princess Toronado is not that answer.

It is indeed. One need only to scour the 565 pages of solved puzzles.

Enjoy!

Some kind of roadster?

Otto Puzzell · August 12, 2011, 11:04:25 AM

Nope - it has a rigid roof

Otto Puzzell · August 13, 2011, 05:19:53 AM

It is red

Open to all

It's a Norwegian VW-based one-off called the Stranden Scorpione, completed in 1972 by Einar Stranden.

Nicely done - a point for you.
