That's Dixie, isn't it? On a Stutz? It's amazing to me that I know who the kid is, but not the CAR :lmao: The things you can learn just by keeping your eyes open!

Or as the great philosopher Yogi Berra is alleged to have said, "You can observe a lot just by watching."  Then someone asked him "What time is it?" and he answered, "You mean now?"

Ok.  I'll go back to work on my race car.

One guess at a time is the standard rule-of-thumb. Neither of the guesses you proffered is correct.

A-ha. I can see the black square on the side of the body, and make out part of the Templar cross (now).
