From Hawaii?

Allemano · May 30, 2010, 05:25:51 PM

A good guess, but it's not from Hawaii..

Was the guy a US Navy sailor?

Ray B. · May 30, 2010, 05:43:06 PM

Built by a sailor in WWII, between battles?

Allemano · May 30, 2010, 11:03:25 PM

I suppose so, but my source says nothing about it!
All I have is the name of the car, a year when the picture was taken and the name of the location

Otto Puzzell · May 31, 2010, 05:12:09 AM

~~Based on a Jeep?~~

No - the tires are too small. I suppose this picture could have been taken in occupied Japan, so this would be based on something from that country.

Not Japan....

Otto Puzzell · May 31, 2010, 05:16:19 AM

So, the location is not Japan?

Allemano · May 31, 2010, 06:35:27 AM

Yes!

Otto Puzzell · May 31, 2010, 06:49:10 AM

Let's go with The Philippines

Allemano · May 31, 2010, 06:58:15 AM

I give you a hint: the photo was taken in the Pacific region...

Not on the Philippines, though.

Otto Puzzell · May 31, 2010, 07:01:19 AM

Must be San Diego, or thereabouts

Allemano · May 31, 2010, 07:30:51 AM

Another hint: for a special reason it's very quiet there. (in contrast to San Diego)

guido66 · May 31, 2010, 12:48:49 PM

Tahiti?

Allemano · May 31, 2010, 01:00:40 PM

No.

guido66 · May 31, 2010, 01:25:23 PM

Very quiet? Bikini Atoll?

Allemano · May 31, 2010, 01:32:27 PM

Not the Bikini Atoll, but you got my hint right.
The reason why its quiet there has another reason...

guido66 · May 31, 2010, 01:43:30 PM

Iwo Jima?

Allemano · May 31, 2010, 01:46:08 PM

No.

Another hint:

Was the place completely evacuated?

Is that one of the bird-eliminating snakes of Guam?
