Very

Is 'American' part of the name?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #8 on:** January 02, 2011, 08:22:01 AM »

It is not.

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #9 on:** January 02, 2011, 08:23:47 AM »

Prolific maker (more than 10 years)?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #10 on:** January 02, 2011, 09:17:11 AM »

Indeed

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #11 on:** January 02, 2011, 09:20:31 AM »

Now I read the question...
are they 13?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #12 on:** January 02, 2011, 02:34:52 PM »

My eyes are not so good, but that count seems accurate. The number (or age) of the kids is not part of the answer.

This type of vehicle is well-known. If you can ID the car, the solution becomes easier.

This one's like a boil on the butt of the Pro section - perhaps I should send it to the final resting place, where it can be dealt with by a medical professional?

This car-buncle has not been lanced.

Let's hope there is an orphanage in the Black Hole.

I don't know, but I suspect not.

pnegyesi · « **Reply #22 on:** February 13, 2011, 11:36:43 AM »

Is this car related to a doctor?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #23 on:** February 13, 2011, 01:00:10 PM »

Buicks were often doctor's cars. This is not a Buick

pnegyesi · « **Reply #24 on:** February 13, 2011, 02:09:28 PM »

Locomobile?
