Who is he, and what car can he be associated with in his work?

Art and cars. Painters, writers, musicians, actors, movie makers: in a nutshell, artists. Cars of special importance in their work, or in their life.

Rule of this puzzle is: you identify the artist, you have one week to find the car. After that, the hunt is opened and anyone can rob you of your point.

Thanks!

In need of expertise.

No interest shown by experts either.

Musician?

Ray B. · « **Reply #4 on:** February 25, 2009, 05:34:59 AM »

Not a musician.

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #5 on:** February 25, 2009, 05:35:44 AM »

Visual arts?

IS HE A WRITER?

Those "face" puzzles can drive one nuts, can't they? Especially as most of the time he has a feeling of déjà-vu and is persuaded to know that face from somewhere... but where? Your "Wide Word of Sports" had the same effect on me.

This is why I love them, of course.

That just leaves "dancer" as his art I think

Ray B. · « **Reply #11 on:** February 25, 2009, 06:21:58 AM »

So, counting Otto's "visual arts" for 2, you say there are only 5 arts?

Allan L · « **Reply #12 on:** February 25, 2009, 01:05:42 PM »

Music
Painter or sculptor (visual arts)
Writer (must include book and drama)
Dancer

I suppose Actor has to be added

Ray B. · « **Reply #13 on:** February 26, 2009, 04:06:39 AM »

And actor he is indeed.

I know, I know, I've been accused to deprive experts of a chance to take a shot at some puzzles that I had moved directly to the Pro and Feature Writer section.

Well, here is their chance: I am moving back this one to the FREE FOR ALL section!

It looks a bit like Peter Sellers in one of his many disguises.

Ray B. · « **Reply #16 on:** March 12, 2009, 09:07:59 AM »

Exactly.
Now you have to find a car he can be associated with. I have a particular car in mind, since often actors can be associated with many cars.
If you give me this precise car this will be a 2 points puzzle. A clue: it is blue.
Come with another (and some kind of evidence of the connection), it will only be worth one point.

Is it the Viotti Bristol, the two-pointer?

Ray B. · « **Reply #18 on:** March 12, 2009, 10:13:51 AM »

I don't know what is the Viotti Bristol, but if you read my puzzle post you'll see that this is locked for neilshouse.

Allemano · « **Reply #19 on:** March 12, 2009, 10:27:53 AM »

I think that's not a clearly locked puzzle! (and I've definetely read the post!) "You" has two different meanings, "You" know?

I've meant the 1962 Viotti Bristol 407 drophead by Viotti, but I admit he owned many cars more

Don't you call that locked?

Mea Culpa!

I didn't read the whole topic...

neilshouse · « **Reply #22 on:** March 12, 2009, 11:11:16 AM »

I know he has been associated with lots of different cars but this is the car I associate him with more than any others.

A Mini Cooper modified by Hooper.

Ray B. · « **Reply #23 on:** March 12, 2009, 11:13:38 AM »

Of course.
The car I am talking is in a movie he made.

neilshouse · « **Reply #24 on:** March 12, 2009, 11:15:50 AM »

In 'The Party' he drove a superbly tatty Morgan 3 wheeler. From memory that was blue.
