A tasteful composition, at least the picture.

For one point, please respond and identify this car, its base and its builder.

Is it from Orange County? Bad joke. But US-build?

If it was US-built, I wouldn't have left the license plate readable in the puzzle picture.  ;)

Well the country is huge, so it would not really be the biggest of clues. It looks a bit VW-based.

No, its looks are more those of a leisure vehicle like Citroen Méhari or Renault Rodeo. I've got more pictures, but they would make it too easy to tell the base car. Maybe later...

A German build leisure vehicle, but not VW-based. Now it is in the US.

I know there is a Porsche Jagd-wagen (hope I spell it correct), so is it Porsche-based?

It is not Porsche-based, but you should follow that Jagdwagen track.

Jagdwagen was a big clue.  I felt that the lock was meant. :applause:

Now I lock it for you, DeAutogids. You have identified the car, but there is a muddle of names (as in the source). So we better separate truth from legend. Let's call this car Jagdwagen, although perhaps this is a legend already.  Who built it? What is the base?

Thanks for your sportsmanship, pguillem. Although, DeAutogids is right, I didn't lock it.
