Studebaker Big Six?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #78 on:** November 10, 2013, 01:42:51 PM »

Not Studebaker.
I can't give clues or it will be too easy, but I can answer to your guesses about.
I had the feeling that some of you got it.
It will be much, much easier.
I think I made it clear but I can be wrong (and I often am) so, my suggestion is not list all the 6-cylinder cars of the 20s but ask me about the only clue...then will be a (short) rush toward the solution.

is the name related to the geographical location?

Nope...

Locomobile? There were Locomobiles bodied by Derham and Brewster with Rolls Royce like radiators.

Was this a production car, made in any significant numbers?

Every source I read about reports that probably not a single car was ever made, but the maker is regulary listed as manufacturer.

Stansell Six?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #85 on:** November 11, 2013, 03:09:37 AM »

Not that...it won't take much...

THe Washington (named for George, not the place), from Cleveland, Ohio?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #87 on:** November 11, 2013, 03:16:32 AM »

Not Washington...

You are not paying attention to the only clue...it's not about the name but the nationality.
I'm not going to reveal where it's from for a simple reason...a very simple reason.

Corinthian Six from about 1923?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #91 on:** November 11, 2013, 04:33:35 AM »

Was there a Six too?
Anyway is not that and there was only a Six in their line up (2 different bodistyles).

Forster?
1920 EISEMANN MAGNETO Big Original AD. Featuring FORSTER SIX (Canada). Brooklyn

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #93 on:** November 11, 2013, 03:23:37 PM »

Bingo!!

The only rule was 'I can't reveal the nationality' because once you'll knew it was from Canada, it was a matter of minutes.
The only clue was that I could not reveal the nationality: if it was from the USoA, what kind of clue was that?
I had to say it was not from Europe to avoid you to name all the cars made in those markets where the makers are not hundreds but what was left? Australia, Canada and Asia...given the fact that Africa and South America were out of the question. The look of the car was pretty American, so Canada was a valid guess and my replies were all in this direction.
I hope I did not waste your time and you enjoied the game like I did.

A well earned point for you Pal!

Thanks, Google Snippet view fooled me a bit, otherwise I would have found it earlier.

Bill Murray · « **Reply #95 on:** November 11, 2013, 04:03:03 PM »

My hat is off to you Pal

That was not an easy puzzle for sure and I as well as many others put in a lot of time trying to figure it out.

Good Job My Friend................
