Not that...was another long lasting puzzle of mine, solved not long ago (but not recently)

was it a German car or from Germany's neighbourhood...?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #26 on:** August 17, 2009, 03:15:53 PM »

A German - nice - car!

Allemano · « **Reply #27 on:** August 17, 2009, 03:24:03 PM »

Glas?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #28 on:** August 17, 2009, 03:42:28 PM »

That's it!
A Glas-based sports car.

Allemano · « **Reply #29 on:** August 17, 2009, 03:46:06 PM »

..but it has a specific name...?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #30 on:** August 17, 2009, 03:49:58 PM »

Nope, it was ...professionally home-made.

Allemano · « **Reply #31 on:** August 17, 2009, 03:57:26 PM »

Anything more needed? Name of the builder?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #32 on:** August 17, 2009, 04:12:57 PM »

Anything more?
This is a Glas-powered car, that's only the beginning...

Who did it?

Allemano · « **Reply #33 on:** August 17, 2009, 04:17:29 PM »

Glas 1004 engine?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #34 on:** August 17, 2009, 04:27:17 PM »

1300.

Allemano · « **Reply #35 on:** August 17, 2009, 04:55:32 PM »

Whatever his name is: he did not improve the design of the original GLAS 1300 GT.
Or is it based on a 1304?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #36 on:** August 17, 2009, 05:38:26 PM »

I'm afraid I can't understand the online translation of the page...it talks of a wrecked 1204, but in the technical spec reports a ca. 75 kW and 1300 cm³! Probably the author modified the engine too. I can ask him.

This car was built around Glas mechanicals from a german werkstatt (workshop), named after its creator's initials. This workshop seems to be a reference about these engines.

Final move... $:-\$

pnegyesi · « **Reply #39 on:** September 09, 2009, 10:52:10 PM »

Was this car built in the 1960s? I don't think the shop is still around.

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #40 on:** September 10, 2009, 05:33:48 AM »

The car was reaty to hit the road in 1967. About the shop it was active for sure till the 90s, because in a picture there is a modern car.

I don't know where did you get that from, but it's not.
It's like a riddle in a puzzle, but, believe me, it's really easy.
1) I wrote it in red, capital letters. (do you remember where did I wrote anything in red capital letters?)
2) I gift it to all of you. (my english is not that good, I must confess, but sometimes I do select the words I'm using for a reason)
