Another puzzle from me. Can anyone tell us what make and model this is?

1950 Buick Custom

Nothing to do with Buick I'm afraid.

XK 120?

jimjarron · « **Reply #4 on:** November 17, 2008, 07:21:41 PM »

Definitely not - there's nothing English about this car.

By the powers invested in me my the creator of this site, I hereby pronounce this puzzle to be promoted.

Italian? Like Touring-bodied?

1954 Francone-Santin from Argentina!

faksta · « **Reply #8 on:** December 29, 2008, 12:49:24 PM »

You've already been warned.

But jimjarron, in your article the car is never called Francone Vista? It is however called Santin-Francone in the text. So where did you get the Francone Vista name from, I wonder?

Ray B. · « **Reply #14 on:** December 30, 2008, 06:31:07 AM »

From here I guess. And I believe that jimjarron and faksta speak spanish as bad as I do, and that "Vista 3/4 trasera" mean "rear 3/4 view".

@ Otto: Sorry once again! Jim Jarron also provided the link, so?

This particular car is mentioned differently in various sources. Jim Jarron's source has it as Francone Vista (maybe

) and the source I have provided has it as Francone Vista. I am not sure which name is really correct..

faksta · « **Reply #16 on:** December 30, 2008, 10:38:33 AM »

Anyway, I guess Arunas has scored his point

I've taken the same picture, but without any inscripts like on Ray's one. It was called 'Francone Vista' in a text, as far as I remember.

woodinsight · « **Reply #17 on:** September 03, 2011, 07:31:44 PM »

Another view labelled Francone-Santin of 1954

Ray B. · « **Reply #18 on:** September 05, 2011, 10:53:35 AM »

Righy; And if one read repiles 13 and 14, it's obvious that the topic should be corrected and renamed "Francone-Santin"

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #19 on:** September 05, 2011, 11:15:35 AM »

Fixed!
