RHD doesn't really mean too much....is it Italian?

[Wendax]

Not Italian

[nicanary]

German?

[Wendax]

Yes

[nicanary]

Dixi ?

[Wendax]

No

[faksta]

Fafnir with Springsfeld at the wheel?

[Wendax]

No

[targhediferro]

Apollo?

[Wendax]

No, but it is one of the brands guessed in the Wendax 1095 puzzle. 

[nicanary]

Don't think it's a Horch, so it must be an NSU?

[Wendax]

Sorry for my misleading hint. It is one of the brands that have been guessed in vain for car #2 in my other puzzle.

[targhediferro]

Is it an Heim?

[Wendax]

Yes, locked for you to find the driver.

[targhediferro]

As I told many times, I'm not an expert about racing, but I guessed Heim because (digging in 1095 quiz) I found that its founder was a pilot.  Now I have no idea about the races this car took part in, and so I could dare no other guess but Franz Heim. If it is wrong please unlock because I would go to a blind fishing.

[Wendax]

Not Franz Heim.

Unlocked and open for all again.

[targhediferro]

I've found another pilot who used an Heim, Reinhold Stahl, is him the man you're searching for?

[Wendax]

In that race was a third Heim pilot besides Franz Heim and Reinhold Stahl. Locked for you again.

[targhediferro]

So he should be Art Henney....Autopuzzles is a continue surprise, today I discovered that three cars of a brand absolutely unknown to me, took part in Gran Premio d'Italia 1922.

[Wendax]

Right you are. A well-earned point for you is on the way.
