Thanks for another great puzzle. frederick59 did the heavy lifting on this one. I still can't believe the ease with which you gents solve puzzles by the handful. Takes me hours.
I'm not sure about ease, Zerk. That Maila Nurmi (Vampira) thing kinda turned into an obsession and I spent too many hours that I should have spent getting my race car ready for the salt flats or trying to stock up on rest for Speed Week (gonna be about 10 days of 16-18 hours each...and my old body just has trouble with that)....so what do I do? Search every frikkin Vampira site on the web seeing the same stock photos again and again, fighting with a slow DSL line that seems to function about like a mostly-blocked sewer connection and what I think is a major bug in Firefox and.... </rant>
One thing that helps me is the collection of photos, drawings and other images that I've collected over a long span of time. I figger that those of us in the US are at a bit of a disadvantage here, since...well, at least
I'm not familiar with obscure Eastern European one-off cars and ultra-small coachbuilding firms in unknown locations...yet I've been to some of these locations and I can read fairly well in French and German.
But that challenge is what keeps me coming back here...even when I know I have other things I should be doing. Well, I did get the new side-exit exhaust installed in the race car and identified a couple of potential problem areas. So keep at it, man. As long as ya play fair, the worst that can happen is a wrong answer.
I gotta reboot this box before I shoot it. I'm outta here.
