Hello everyone,
someone has been asking about this car, but I have have no information about where it has been photographed. Does anyone know what it is?

Marcel De Ley, a metal shaper working in California, passed away in 2018 at the age of 89.  Numerous articles appeared to mark his passing.  Most included the same car images, including some famous vehicles he worked on.  Pictures were included of 5 vehicles, which did not include any description or name.  There was an indication that he never named the first car he built.  Has anyone seen these cars before, or found a name?

(Apologies if any of these appear in current puzzles.)

Any ideas on this one? It might be French, but I have no idea what it is.

Should be an easy one. North Korea in the early 60s.

This is annoying me, It's on another car forum, and I'm frustrated I can't answer it. It's probably been on here before.
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Me too! If Barrett and EdNankivell were a bit more active on this site we could ask them if it is a coachbuilt Jowett Jupiter as we both suspect. . .

We need an identification for which vehicle this interior view belongs to. It has been shown in a short footage in a North Korean movie, meant to belong to a Taebaeksan-80 truck but I have my doubts. I suspect something foreign and less primitive.

What is this?
« Reply #1444 on: March 15, 2023, 03:44:38 PM »
My Local (Huddersfield) History group has a picture archive which, although full of early vehicles, is lacking any labelling of the cars themselves.
Here's an example, rather nice and obviously coachbuilt, which I cannot identify. Any Clues?  Barrett seems to have solved this, I've tried messaging but 'inbox is full error'  here's the reply

Wow, thanks for that. I really didn't expect any reply. The local history archive is https://kirkleesimages.org.uk/enter.php   (I live in Marsden, part of Kirklees) the search facility is reasonable and I think there is another image of the same car. The images rarely have any detailed information which is frustrating as there would be some great puzzles amongst them. Please let me know how you get on.  Regards John.

Need Help Identifying Unknown Car
« Reply #1445 on: June 14, 2023, 04:44:44 PM »
I need help identifying this car. All the information I have on this is that it may be a homemade/kit car and the licence plate is registered in Graubünden, Switzerland. Any help would be immensely appreciated!

This is a Sunbeam 16hp of circa 1920. I don't know the coachbuilder, but it apparently had a local registration (I can't make it out here) so perhaps Rippon Bros? I don't have the Rippon book in my library, sadly.

Does anyone recognise this one? I am sure this is a car I know, but I just can't figure out what it is. Despite the Panhard, this photograph was taken in the UK, on a rally in the early 1950s.
