Some are quite easy (so none of your eye-rolling, please - these puzzles are meant for novices and veterans alike) and some may be quite difficult.

Cheese #1: 1949 Chrysler

Not entirely correct - on coupe models, the chrome strip that bisects the grille horizontally extends around the front fender, ending ahead of the wheel opening. On sedans, the strip terminated below the marker llight.

In the context of this puzzle (wherein the terminus of the chrome strip cannot be seen), your assertion is correct, and I'll waive the 'model designation' requirement.

That's it!  ;D

Put a fork in this one; it's done. Points look like this:

Allan L   1
Ray B   8
Allemano   3
max   2

And those 2 points push max to the rank of expert. Well done, max!
