Title: Solved TGF-131: Wolseley 6c. 1912, by Donderwinkel
Post by: targhediferro on May 25, 2013, 01:16:09 PM
I know only the maker and the coachbuilder.  That's what I need to give you a point.

Neither the maker nor the coachbuilder are Italian.

Well, this one is turning out to be more difficult than I expected, as I, incorrectly, was pretty sure that the coachbuilder was Hamshaw.  I guess that I still think the coachbuilder is British, although perhaps not as well known as first thought.  I'll try: Wolseley by Cockshoot.

No, the coachbuilder is not british.

Well, if the coachbuilder is not British, my first hunch, that this was an export (colonial) model, might be correct after all.  If this was a chassis exported to one of the Commonwealth coumtries, I will guess Australia, and thus an Australian coachbuilder.  Hence, I will try: Wolseley by G.H.Olding & Sons.

Not colonial...so not Australian.

With Italy, France, Britain and the colonies ruled out, I guess that I will have to try the Low Countries. Wolseley by Pennock?
Title: Re: TGF-131: Locked
Post by: targhediferro on May 30, 2013, 04:45:52 PM
Not Pennock, but right country! I should unlock, but as you guessed the country I give you one chance more.

Thanks for the lock extension.  I trust I can profit from your generosity.  For my final chance I will go with a firm that has earned me past points, and say: Wolseley by Schutter & van Bakel.

Sorry, not that one, a more oscure one. Unlocked.

Wolseley by Akkermans?
Title: Re: TGF-131
Post by: 4popoid on May 31, 2013, 02:43:59 AM
Disregard my previous post, as I just located the answer.  The correct answer is: Wolseley (6 cyl.) by G. J. Donderwinkel of Doesburg, Netherlands.
