Solved: Name That Make #30 - 1898 Dasse voiturette
« on: September 06, 2009, 09:38:18 AM »
Unlike most of my single-car puzzles, this involves a make that was actually around for a while... so I'm going to ask for make name and type of car (there isn't really a "model name").

I don't usually feature cars this old because they tend to look pretty much like other cars from the same era. But I think this one stands out because it looks like it's part cello or something!

No, sir -- something less specific & fancier sounding.

Nope. But both guesses so far (French & British) are very close geographically.
