With Barris and Kurtis you are slightly going out of the track...Stevens, Loewy, Earl, Mitchell, Exner, and this one are in the same list...

Yes!!!
Gordon Buerhig owned this car up until the time of his death!
Was I misleading with my clues? OK, it's always easy when you know the answer...
Now the, slightly, harder part.
Who build it?

Not Elvis Presley...I don't think we named him at Autopuzzles 17 times!

You are right, we named him 24 times.  ;D

Nope, He was named because we have another car he built and because of his multiple activities...
