Built by Jay Ohrberg ?

sixtee5cuda · March 21, 2016, 07:34:55 PM

Not built by Jay Ohrberg.

Like your last two suggestions, the last name of the builder contains an "H".

oko94 · March 29, 2016, 01:58:43 PM

Was it build by someone known for other custom cars ?

sixtee5cuda · March 29, 2016, 05:00:02 PM

The builder is known for his custom cars, including one which was featured here in 2011

Ray Farhner ?

sixtee5cuda · March 31, 2016, 03:09:32 PM

LOCKED for oko94!

Yes, this is a Ray Farhner car. To earn your point, provide the name of this car, which is the only other piece of information I have found on it.

I've browsed a huge amount of web pages related to Ray Farhner and I can't find a trace of this vehicle. Is the solution available online ?

sixtee5cuda · April 01, 2016, 01:48:39 PM

I found the puzzle image online. At the top of the image was the name of the car. I do not know of a web page which contains both the name Farhner, and the name of the car in text form.

We may just be reduced to guessing the number of letters, and spelling the name one character at a time.

It is a nice looking car. Too bad that no information about it survived the 60's. Given the proportions of the car, it was either rear-engined, or didn't have an engine.

oko94 · April 07, 2016, 12:35:28 PM

Is the name of the car only one word ?

sixtee5cuda · April 07, 2016, 07:36:52 PM

If you count "The", the name of the car is 2 words. Otherwise, it is a single word.

oko94 · April 08, 2016, 11:57:25 AM

The Alien ?

sixtee5cuda · April 08, 2016, 03:56:21 PM

Not The Alien.

The first letter is a vowel, but it is not "A" (So we shall proceed with taking the word apart, one letter at a time.)

oko94 · April 11, 2016, 12:45:32 PM

Is the first letter E ?

sixtee5cuda · April 11, 2016, 08:31:04 PM

Not A, Not E

oko94 · April 12, 2016, 02:33:29 AM

I ?

sixtee5cuda · April 12, 2016, 10:43:36 AM

Yes, it starts with I

Wendax · April 12, 2016, 12:26:22 PM

Interceptor?
