You're correct on all counts. Tell me what powers this car, and the point is yours!

Locked for Oswald for 24 hours.

I don't know if it has a name but I've found it described as 'Custom Steel-Bodied Roadster Built On A 1955 Volkswagen Chassis With A Corvair Engine'

It could also be the answer to your tail light puzzle!

That's the answer I was after.

Could be, but it's not.

One point each for Oswald and neilshouse, since I wasn't very clear in the initial post.
