I have not managed to find any evidence that Vector designer Gerald Wiegert has been building a car in Japan - but that would certainly explain the 'W' in front of the rear wheel. Having said that, I expect I am still far from the truth. But I just can not get rid of the idea that I've seen this car before somewhere.

Paul Jaray · November 04, 2007, 01:16:46 PM

Hi, you've seen right...there is a 'W' on the side and it is the initial of the designer...but He came from Japan to the States because He is japanese...and I'm sure You've seen this car before because I took this pic from a not so obscure website...but I have to say that I've seen this car only there...

@re · November 10, 2007, 05:40:37 PM

Watanabe? Wakatsuki? Washio? Or is it the first name?

I'm getting obsessed with this one...

Paul Jaray · November 10, 2007, 05:52:32 PM

"Masao" should tell you something...

Otto Puzzell · November 17, 2007, 03:54:38 AM

Is it a Foreman?

Paul Jaray · November 17, 2007, 11:42:16 AM

Arejh was closer....not a Foreman...

@re · November 18, 2007, 09:45:17 AM

The only Japanese car designer I have been able to find with a last name that starts with a W, is Audi's Satoshi Wada. Something tells me he isn't the guy, and obviously this design isn't a new creation. When you said Masao, I thought of racing car designer Masao Ono, but I haven't been able to find any information on a road car design from his pen - or, indeed, any mention of a career in the US building up another car brand.

Any more clues to give away?

Paul Jaray · November 18, 2007, 09:51:29 AM

There is a Japanese designer called Masao W. and you were very close in your previous post...I'm telling you almost everything (you almost find out everything..)...you are one-step to solve this....
