Philip Egan is usually credited for this one because he's the only one seen working on it.

Oh.. It's not the name I have!
If you can PM me some proof I can be persuaded but otherwise I'll have to stick out for the name I have.
I'll keep it locked for you for another try..

Actually Tremulis did do a proposal entitled Tucker Talisman but it wasn't this car.
Although Egan did work on the puzzle car he used as a basis someone else's work, and although you are correct in naming Philip Egan I really need the name of the guy who originated the design.

Locked for you to see what you can find!

This is your first warning!
