#70 by Arunas SOLVED!
« on: November 03, 2008, 11:31:16 AM »
Let me present You a special #70 puzzle:

As You see below there are 10 pictures of cars to be identified and 10 names of the places these cars came from. One little "but" is that the names of places are a little bit mistyped ;) So, I'll give one 1 for correctly identifying the car, 1 for telling the correct place and 1 point for correctly pairing the car and place! You can always tell only the car or only the place to get one "safe" point ;)

P.S. To make it easier please write Your answer in format letter-number, for instance K-11..

Good luck!

B-07: Car 'B' appears to be a Turner Sports, which has probably a Coventry Climax engine; that would link it to town #07.
A very cool puzzle indeed!  :thumbsup:

You'll get 1 point for Coventry, but Your identification of car and linking is wrong..

Well – it took me checking quite a few British roadsters from the thirties to find out that the car was a replica…

Another attempt to find a hometown for ’B’: if it isn’t a Turner, then it must be an MC Acer, a copy of the Turner Sports Mk I, re-engineered and built from the mid-eighties by Mark Clarkson in Sheffield. The project was later passed to Carlton Automotive.

Oh yes, I forgot to put it into the proper format: B-4. As we seem to have now three towns to be linked with two cars, one of the cars might be of twofold origin, I guess. Not a vintage car specialist, I only have ideas for the towns still hidden in anagrams: #02 must be Gaggenau, #08 is possibly Brussels.

Cities identification is good, but Your pairing is still wrong.. Make sure You have a correct pair and write letter-number car, city
