1701: You should tell me a maker\designer\tuner\coachbuilder and so on, who worked on a Morris Mini Minor in the '60s. Given the number, 1701, you can assume it's starting with 'A', and my clue is that is quite known.
10801: Bertone it is!
10701: ?? I already gave you that number, (FIAT 1100 COUPE VICTORIA, 1941). It's not Garavini or Pininfarina but one of the biggest ones.

1701 : Alec Issigonis ?
10701 : Allemano ?
May we continue with #100801 ?
Ciao,

1701: Not Issigonis. Starts with 'A', ends with 'R' and contains an 'X'.
10701: Not Allemano. Clue: this number is very close to your 10801 guess.......

1701: Yes!
10701: Not Balbo...that is close, but I said VERY close  ;)
100801: Yes! Just a matter of numbers now.

A clue. please.
Quite obscure. From California. Reported in just an issue of a magazine about Kit Cars but without further details...same company seems to be operating in Canada in 2007 but as a repair and paint shop.
All the above is the useless clue.
The name is quite long, 4 words. Last one is 'coachworks'.

10701: not Boneschi...very close to 10801, and your 10801 was quite a prolific name... ;)
100801: not 1...

Sounds as if I should skip this one.
#93939, please.

Paul Jaray

OK, but if I tell you that first word was a number?
#93939: 3-cylinder car, around 1900

100801: not 1...

10701 : very close to 10801, which was a prolific name.  I think I don't catch the hint.  I'm thinking of Bartoletti and Bianchi, but both of them don't seem very goog guesses.  Another hint ?
100801 : White (2) ?

10701: those are close...yours is VERY close and since 10801 was very prolific, you can assume I listed more than 100 models under that name! I won't penalize you, I know I've not been that clear.  ;)
100801: Yes!

With the "first word is a number" hint given, it must be Ten Quality Custom Coach Works.

I guess I need a clue.
Active till 1907 circa. Production started, according to different sources in 1900 (or 1897 and 1899 according to others!)
1908 is a crucial year for the company.
