I read the whole topic again and to my big surprise I noticed that Hondast already corrected his first guess regarding #8 and I agreed with his second try! (replies #31 & #32)
I think I need a break!

barrett · « **Reply #76 on:** June 29, 2011, 08:57:36 AM »

That's what I thought!

But I was still racking my brains to try and work out what else it might've been...!

I am sorry for 04 but Bugattibuilder thik also Bugatti :

I would agree with SACO on #4.
Below is a photo of the Simca Tempestade for comparison.
Different windscreen, front wing line and air outlets, etc.

You might be right! Thank you for the correction!

(to be honest: today I detected a little typo. I forgot to write the unimportant word "not" in reply #64.
Just now I corrected my mistake and would like to give grobmotorix the chance to make another statement on this, at least for 24h. Sorry Wendax, but after that you can step in.)

#9 is a so-called Dalnik, a bodied motorcycle. It was built by Karosa, some sources state a Sodomka involvement. It was a one-off with a 250 cc Jawa engine. The construction of this Dalnik took place from 1957 to 1960.

Correct!

All finished. I'm temporarily a little busy. Will update the score list and award the points later.

#4 - Bugatti Type 57 #57418

So after all it was our Paul Jaray who get the point for his very first guess on this puzzle. Sorry Saco, as you cleverly pointed out that I was wrong.

And...bad luck Otto!

Thank YOU! I enjoy these NM puzzles a great deal, in fact I'm collecting images to do one of my own (if it's okay with you!)

Those points have pushed me rather too close to the pros for comfort

woodinsight · « **Reply #90 on:** July 02, 2011, 07:02:43 AM »

Thanks Allemano.
Good fun and very interesting as always.
Looking forward to the next edition!

Thank you, I'm glad when it's entertaining.

I'm currently working on a new Geo puzzle and a new type of group puzzle.
The next Near Mint edition has to wait I'm afraid.

Should be still on my HD. If I do forget please remind me again.
