1946 Stevens/ Brisko
I believe front wheel drive and radio communication with pits.

You are almost there... year and drivers are right, as well as the radio communication system which was very uncommon in those days. This car has a name as well, locked for you to find it

Otto, I changed the header in Boxar Tool Special 1946 after the puzzle had been solved and now you have changed it back ? I don't understand what's happening...

But did you change it in your original (first) post?  That's the one that really does need to carry the solution!

Mekubb, the best way to alter the title for the whole thread is to click at the "Change the topic's subject" box when you move the topic. You can change the title there.

Ok thanks. So far I haven't had problems with my other solved puzzles... As you can see in my reply #5 the header has been changed correctly but apparently it didn't come through. But in future I will change it the way you suggested
