Woman passenger:  "Oh my God, Frans, you're going far too fast, look out for those kids, mind THAT CAR! there's a corner coming up.........................we'll never make it! Ooooooh! Why did I ever climb into this thing?"

Driver:  "Shaddap, will you? I'm only going 40kph!"

WP:  "Yes, but that's still too fast. Are you sure the wheels are on tight? You're driving like a madman!"

Driver:  (Silence - Thinks) 'Never again. Next time she stays at home.'

After the rescue, this was still without a photo.
Iīve re-uploaded it now after #THEBIGRESCUE.
Hope it will not cause any trouble...

I want to get this solved, as it is an interesting car, really.  :)

So Iīll help massively:

The owner/builder and provider of the carīs name is from Mainz/Germany.

It features an Alfa Romeo engine.

And itīs (german, but durch looking) name may arouse the following images for english speaking people:

   - strongly related to Basketball
   - sounds like a salt flat racer
   - or a motor boat.

Carry on - youīre chances are good after this big hints...

 ;)
