Neither Richelieu nor Crane-Simplex, but that's the degree of obscurity to look for.

Although I don't have exact numbers for the puzzle car, I guess Stephens was a mass producer compared to the puzzle car's producing company.

The pictured car was a pilot car, but there was a small series production. But as I said before, I don't know how many cars were built.

Well done, Pal. It is the Rotary Six, initially known as the Rotarian, built by the Bournonville Motor Company. In 1921, it was driven in a transcontinental run to prove the reliability of its rotary sleeve engine.
