Solved: NTM #42 - "Cars" 2 ("Kars")
« on: March 13, 2010, 08:45:34 PM »
This is a follow up to my earlier "Cars" puzzle (http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=10159.0).

In that puzzle, every car had a make name ending in "car." Each car in this puzzle has something true of it's name that's similar to that... but not quite the same.

No, but I've thought about making a puzzle like that, and may do so someday.

Anyway, they're not exactly "...cars" like in the previous puzzle, but they're really close.

In other words, the make names don't end in "car," but in something similar.

#1 is correct!

And as you might guess from that, the theme is that these are not "cars" but "kars".

And we're done!

1 - 1904 Ottokar runabout - Paul Jaray
2 - 1914 Keller Kar cyclecar - Paul Jaray
3 - 1917 Kline Kar touring 6-38 - Paul Jaray
4 - 1919 Stork Kar - Amsterdam

(Note: There were a few other "kars" I could have used, but they all would have been reposts.)

(Note 2: Paul J. may have the Stork Kar model designation correct, but I didn't have that info myself so I can't confirm.)

Bobbi Kar, Browniekar, Dankar, Dakar & Neckar?
But what about Cummikar, Kooble Kar and Super Kar?  ;D

I couldn't find a Cummikar pic, I never heard of Kooble Kar, and if I had Super Kar on my list I couldn't find a pic of it either.
