The Search engine is right up to scratch again.
Trouble is, I didn't even know it was called 'Dream Rod'; I searched using Car Craft, Jowett and Jupiter as those are the names a) I had and b) I was looking for as answers!  Of course, none of them showed up...
When it was solved first time there was a distinct lack of info as to its origins.  It was the fact it was based on a Jowett Jupiter that attracted me to use this as a puzzle, a fact not even mentioned first time around!
