Which car is this?

Carnut · « **Reply #1 on:** August 04, 2009, 01:52:29 PM »

Clenet (Mercedes-Benz 540K lookalike) made in the USA in the mid to late 1970s/early 1980s and based originally on a Lincoln chassis and drivetrain.

no, only inspired in Clenet

So it must be a Corsair

Well you do surprise me.
It looks exactly like a Corsair but with a Clenet badge...
It can't be a Wasil can it?

jotage21 · « **Reply #7 on:** August 06, 2009, 03:48:02 PM »

no. If I´m not wrong, the wings were bought from the person that produced the Corsair.

Well if it's neither a Roaring Twenties Corsair nor a Clenet then I regret to say I'm completely stumped.
Can't find anything that looks anything like close to those two, which look just about identical to your picture apart from perhaps the badge and wheels!
They all seem to be based around an MG Midget body and windscreen incl yours but can't identify it.

jotage21 · « **Reply #9 on:** August 07, 2009, 04:09:58 PM »

To help you, it´s a one off and made in USA

Could it be a Desande?

jotage21 · « **Reply #12 on:** October 28, 2009, 12:38:30 PM »

no. I think that Desande was British, this is an American one-off

Was this built in Fort Lauderdale, Florida?

jotage21 · « **Reply #16 on:** January 13, 2010, 06:05:48 AM »

I don´t remember exactly, I will look in the magazine as soon as possible, but I think that you are right

pnegyesi · « **Reply #17 on:** January 13, 2010, 06:19:49 AM »

Then my bet would be Steering Wheels

jotage21 · « **Reply #18 on:** January 15, 2010, 01:02:34 PM »

not a Steering Wheels, it´s a one-off. A clue: made by an architect.

jotage21 · « **Reply #19 on:** January 18, 2010, 08:33:56 AM »

four letters in the nam (again

)

jotage21 · « **Reply #20 on:** March 21, 2010, 04:49:11 PM »

buried

Djetset · « **Reply #21 on:** November 08, 2010, 08:22:40 AM »

I guess that only four letters in the name, plus being a one-off, rules out the Sparks Turbo II?!

MARTIN TAYLOR Dussey?

jotage21 · « **Reply #23 on:** November 26, 2010, 04:52:43 AM »

no and no
