It isn't as shiny anymore nowadays as in the picture ...

[streamliner]

Amazing how so many of these show cars ended up neglected and just deteriorated so quickly.  Sad...

That's the right and complete answer as requested. Congratulation to your 100th point!
Bad luck 72must!  
I was thinking that this is a rather easy puzzle to solve, so, I didn't lock it.

Obviousely it's waiting for restoration. Guess it will be good or even better looking in the upcoming month. Probably featured at Pebble Beach or on another of these fancy events.

Not sure of your logic here ! ,It wasn't picked up by the Rookies ,after 40 mins no one else had picked up on it & the year + make + coachbuilder were correct.....it's your puzzle ,you're going to do what you want I guess !

I have to say that I'd like a clarification, too.  The time stamps seem to indicate that 72Must's answer was the earliest one...if the time stamp is based on the server's clock and not the member's local time.  I hope I don't ruffle any feathers, just trying to understand how things work.

[Allemano]

Surely he was first (reply#2), but I'm sorry.
As quoted in reply #3 it wasn't completely solved as 72must missed the "ST" part, or am I blind?

I'm not a friend of locked puzzles at least not on rather easy ones. It's part of the game that you're posting on your own risk. If others complete your incomplete answers and steal the point it's bad luck for you.

The problem is mine.  I saw 72Must's 2nd response (which was correct) :

Chrysler ST special by Ghia ?

and misread the time stamp.  It was "« Reply #7 on: March 29, 2012, 04:05:09 PM »", while streamliner's answer had a time stamp of "« Reply #4 on: March 29, 2012, 10:09:50 AM »"

I was half asleep and thought they were both AM or PM.  I now see that streamliner's post was about 6 hours earlier.  My bad.  Please accept apology.
