Who built this car, what was it based upon, what powers it, and what name does it carry?

Thanks sixtee5cuda, I enjoyed doing that last batch of your puzzles as an Expert.

I guess all the future holds for me here now as an Professional Auto Puzzler is blurred black and white photos of cars built way before my time in places I have never heard of, the answers held within books I don't have any access too. :'(

Thanks Carnut! :)

Yes it already seems pretty barren, I think I will now have to spend days/weeks/months/years instead of miniutes / hours to solve a puzzle.

Being a Expert was certainally fun, thanks again for posting some puzzles that the likes of me was capable of finding a solution too.
