gtr22 is a Sbarro Filippinetti I Coupe, 1965 which is a repost
gtr14 is the Kango from South Africa which is not a repost
Perfect! 2 points!
Quote from: yves on June 12, 2010, 02:17:15 PM
gtr12 is Electraph 225, a French electric car made during WW2, apparently not a repost
Very good 1 point!

Gtr8: Barrett Steam Car
Gtr11: Fiat 1100 by Paul Farago
Gtr20: Phoenix (made in Poland, on VW chassis)

None of them appear to be a repost. There is a VW-based car named Phoenix in the database, but it is a camper – very different from this nice coupé...

All correct!
The Farago was quite obscure, well done!

Time for some clues:
There is only one repost left and only one car with a strong connection with a previous puzzle (2, if you consider #5). All the others are new.

Gtr7 is the 1976 Chasseing, a French version of the German Fibrefab Bonito (which also spawned many British variants; Excalibur, etc.), and is not a repost.

Clue time:

#3 - few sports used that base
#4 - not European
#5 - I know it's not easy, but forget the front and look at the side...
#6 - this one can't be a problem for you
#16 - European
#19 - European
#23 - I'm sure you are not looking good at this

Very good!
That is indeed a Cadillac.
A particular feature of the car is that the front hood can rolls forward on rails...sounds familiar?
#5 locked for Otto till his next reply.

When I first saw the car I was sure it was by Spohn, but when I read that it was a Cadillac-based custom and that the hood could slide on rails I took a better look...at the side of the car...and I remembered...

As I am not able to identify any of the other (so far) unknown vehicles I´ll reveil car gtr-16 now:

it is the Heylandt Höllenhund (Hell hound), a pioneer rocket car that debuted in April 1931 and has not been shown here before.

The Heylandt Raketenauto was presented at Berlin´s Tempelhof airport by Dr.Paulus Heylandt.

If you spot a repost: 0 points
if you spot a repost and a new one: 2 points
if you spot a new one: 1 point
if you spot a new one that is barely a repost and you know why: 2 points
if you spot a new one that is barely a repost but you do not notice that: 1 point

Is it your final answer?
