Is this a real functioning car? Looks like a scale (or full-scale) model...

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #3 on:** February 14, 2008, 05:14:03 PM »

Yep - a real car.

Built by a well-known constructor of competition components and cars, this example was constructed and finished to promote the products of another automotive supplier.

This car's eye-catching appearance is a clue to the supplier it was intended to promote, versus the builder / supplier of the "go" parts.

Moving this one upstairs...

Is it a "Mooneyes" or "Jocko" streamliner?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #9 on:** June 09, 2008, 01:58:43 PM »

No sir.

Is it a electric car, perhaps built for a supplier of tools?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #11 on:** June 28, 2008, 05:35:36 AM »

Nope, not electric. The presenter was a supplier of something that is visible in the picture.

SeaLion · « **Reply #12 on:** June 28, 2008, 07:00:20 AM »

There are some oval shaped "airships" in the background ...

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #13 on:** June 28, 2008, 07:40:54 AM »

The visible clue is on the car.

Alexander Scott checks his bank account balance...

If this a clue, I (as a foreigner?) completely missed it. I find a scottish poet, an american photographer, a real estate agent, an artist specialized in bondage, and a character played by Bill Cosby...

Still haven't found the right Scott, but any relation with British Petroleum?

The right Scott was identified in your previous post.

It hasn't, by any chance, got anything to do with Pirelli?

To my knowledge, no.

Ray B. · « **Reply #21 on:** August 01, 2008, 05:24:45 PM »

I am getting short of ideas, but let's try this:
- Any relation with Ford ?
- Any relation with Jell-O ? (who isn't much of an automotive sipplier, though)

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #22 on:** August 02, 2008, 03:48:58 AM »

Jello is less connected than Ford, but not completely unconnected.

Is Hoover (as in vacuum-cleaners) a scottish firm? And is this an Hoover car perhaps?
