Pros ?

Looks like a c.1962 Rambler American alongside. I haven't got a clue what the puzzle car is.............

Carnut · September 23, 2015, 12:09:40 PM

Anything to do with Biscuter?

oko94 · September 23, 2015, 12:12:42 PM

Huge hint : it's a 1961 Rambler American alongside

oko94 · September 23, 2015, 12:13:23 PM

No Biscuter connection

Is it a rough manufacturer mule by American Motors

oko94 · September 23, 2015, 04:45:35 PM

Not at all

Djetset · September 24, 2015, 08:52:58 PM

Any Renault connection?

D-type · September 24, 2015, 09:29:14 PM

Test mule for the AMX Pacer running gear while Nash finalised the body style.

There is no technical or historical relation between the puzzle car and any American Motors product or related product. The big hint is that, at some point in space and time, the puzzle car got parked alongside a 1961 Rambler American convertible. Understanding the hint will be a big step towards the solution.

The rear part looks a French KV Mini, maybe the front has been added from another French front driven car...

oko94 · September 25, 2015, 03:26:56 AM

No KV Mini relation and not French

Wendax · September 25, 2015, 04:11:26 AM

Is it a three-wheeler?

oko94 · September 25, 2015, 04:20:22 AM

Yes

Wendax · September 25, 2015, 05:07:03 AM

American?

oko94 · September 25, 2015, 05:25:42 AM

I have very few details about this car but yes, it was most probably built in the USA.

D-type · September 25, 2015, 12:35:57 PM

Is the car in the same museum as the 1961 Rambler American?

oko94 · September 25, 2015, 12:55:34 PM

No museum involved, but you've got the right way of thinking.

kwgibbs · October 11, 2015, 03:03:49 PM

is it a homemade Honda 3-wheeler 1975?

oko94 · October 11, 2015, 03:12:09 PM

Yes ! I'm really happy to give you your first pro point ! Well done.

oko94 · October 11, 2015, 03:17:37 PM

The hint was : both the puzzle car and the 1961 Rambler American were on sale at the same classic car auction in Spring 2015.

Original pictures of the contraption.
