Intermeccanica Centaur - a 1970 one-off built by Carrozzeria Intermeccanica for some american doctor.

Hello everyone, my first post and my first puzzle solved

BTW, some of you probably know me from the ucp forum under the name go.pawel

Nope, I don't know you, but glad to meet you. Welcome to AutoPuzzles, ImpishGrin!

And you are, of course, correct. That's the Intermeccanica Centaur.

Another formidable rookie is amongst us!

I most certainly know mr. go.pawel from UCP, welcome. It seems Mateusz dragged you across?

And yes Otto, be afraid, be very afraid.

I am not afraid.

Welcome, Impish Grin.

A two-point puzzle. One point for identifying this car - who built it, what powers it, for whom was it built and when. A second point if you can provide a photo of it after completion!

I'm not the only one who sees an old Granada in it, then?

barrett · « **Reply #9 on:** August 22, 2012, 08:06:20 AM »

No Ford bits here

mymokke · « **Reply #10 on:** August 22, 2012, 11:13:19 PM »

Is it a US build?

sixtee5cuda · « **Reply #11 on:** August 22, 2012, 11:43:52 PM »

South America?

barrett · « **Reply #12 on:** August 23, 2012, 03:57:52 PM »

Not built anywhere in the Americas

RayTheRat · « **Reply #13 on:** August 23, 2012, 05:54:34 PM »

Four doors and 5-lug wheels....Australia?

barrett · « **Reply #14 on:** August 23, 2012, 06:14:13 PM »

RayTheRat · « **Reply #15 on:** August 23, 2012, 06:31:32 PM »

Then the next guess would be, of course, New Zealand.

Delorean · « **Reply #16 on:** August 24, 2012, 02:12:31 AM »

Those rims look like DeLorean-rims ...

barrett · « **Reply #17 on:** August 24, 2012, 06:11:33 AM »

Not from NZ, and this car pre-dates the Delorean

mymokke · « **Reply #18 on:** August 24, 2012, 11:27:48 PM »

Is it built on a GM base, any of the European satelite companies?

barrett · « **Reply #19 on:** August 25, 2012, 06:46:08 AM »

There is a GM car under there somewhere, though not a European one

richard cuyler · « **Reply #20 on:** August 25, 2012, 10:41:51 AM »

Well, despite Brussels' best efforts, Britain isn't yet quite European, so maybe Vauxhall Ventora?

barrett · « **Reply #21 on:** August 26, 2012, 01:09:42 PM »

I'm pretty certain Britain is part of Europe!! Anyway, no Vauxhall bits here. The engine & drivetrain are sourced from the most famous GM brand.

RayTheRat · « **Reply #22 on:** August 26, 2012, 02:08:51 PM »

Since the wheels are Corvette Vortex-style, is the car built on a Corvette platform?

barrett · « **Reply #23 on:** August 29, 2012, 06:49:37 AM »

Corvette is right!

A 24hr lock for you to see what else you can dig up....

RayTheRat · « **Reply #24 on:** August 29, 2012, 05:41:39 PM »

I did a quick search and couldn't find anything and I'm in the last-minute (whole week) thrash to get ready for the salt flats. So go ahead and open it up and if I run across something and no one else has found it, I'll chime in.
