Title: Solved: Wendax 135 - GT-Piczugin
Post by: Wendax on April 21, 2011, 02:49:47 AM
Another project that never materialized beyond the paper.

For one point, please respond and identify the proposed car, its base and the year.

Any connection to the Fireball XL5 project?

I don't think so.

Strikingly similar though!

In that case, is it a Trevor Fiore design?

The back looks like the Austin Healey 3000 designed by Pininfarina (by Pio Manzù) in 1962. Is it a design sketch for this one?

Neither Pininfarina nor Austin-Healey involved.

Alright, you both brought the same information. Woodinsight being first, I could have locked it for him to "find" the GT. But since there is only one online source about this proposal, and I'm quite sure that you both know it, I just wanted to shortcut.

Some pictures:

I had written GT but forgot to include it in my haste to post it.
I'm sure you'll get your own back Allemano in some forthcoming puzzles.....!

Never mind. I only referred to one of today's posts...

It's part of the game to come in second place! And I still support the idea of keeping puzzles open as long as possible.  ;)

I'm probably guilty of moving my puzzles through the ranks too quickly sometimes but it can be frustrating when there is little response.
