Is #10 a Cadillac?

Some kind of Jeep?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #53 on:** June 20, 2011, 07:47:10 PM »

Neither as opulant as a Cadillac, nor Spartan as a Jeep.

I guess that #10 is a home made or modified. Studebaker based?

Not home-made, and sold by dealers with this optional configuration. Not a Studebaker.

Chrysler?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #59 on:** June 21, 2011, 08:43:35 AM »

Not a Chrysler product.

Since we're now at the 20-questions, process-of-elimination phase, I'm going to insist on the distinct configuration of the automobile once the make and model have been guessed.

Ford?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #61 on:** June 21, 2011, 09:02:05 AM »

OK - that's the brand...

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #62 on:** June 22, 2011, 03:41:16 AM »

We've established that #10 is a Ford, and was built in more than one country, and based upon an American design. That should leave a pretty short list of possibilities...

Is it a Falcon police car?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #64 on:** June 22, 2011, 07:45:22 AM »

Is it a Falcon ~~police car~~?

To be honest, I have no idea why Barney Fife's cousin is pictured with the car. I don't think it was used an official/municipal capacity.

Is it a 4 door convertible?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #66 on:** June 22, 2011, 04:27:05 PM »

No.

To make sure I'm 100% clear: It is a drop-top, but not a 4-door drop top.

Is it an Australian Ford Falcon XE convertible, made by Hiller Bros.?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #68 on:** June 23, 2011, 08:36:31 AM »

Don't know if Hiller Brothers was involved; not an XE

Wendax · « **Reply #69 on:** June 23, 2011, 08:43:53 AM »

It is a XL convertible with a retractable steel roof, built upon a Falcon utility base car. It was one of six special cars for the Miss Australia Quest of 1964.

Nicely done!

Well done, all. As I was adding the points to these accounts, I noticed Carnut has now moved into the Pro ranks. Well done, Carnut!
