Was this car ever featured in a book or magazine?

So i spent most of my free time today desperately looking through foreign types of automobile magazines and I came across a (Im assuming Russian or Ukranian) magazine with the car in question on the front. Heres what I found.

I cant seem to find any place where I can actually download the magazine, but with the power of ‘Add Keyboard > Russian’ I was able to translate the front cover, could you tell me if this gets me anywhere?

I have 2 results after looking over everything. These are my shots in the dark:

Mr. Melnik’s Self Made Sports Car

Khimelkas Design Sports Car

I found Khimelkas while going through the 1st page translated. My only proplem is that it was separated while in translations so like i said. Shot in the dark. If anythings not specific enough or im missing something ill still keep hunting.

After looking through I found something that has to do with ‘NTTM Students’ is that the right direction?

Even now that's it's solved, I still don't understand your hint ! What was ChanceHuncha supposed to spot ?

With me, I’m either too deep into something, or too clueless to realize that the answers right infront of me.

I actually had to show the article I found and the photo to a Ukranian student in my guitar class at my high school and I blatantly asked him, “If there’s anything in there that resembles a car name, tell me.” And he didn’t find anything. Nonetheless, i made an effort with my resources.  :bow:

I’ll try harder on the next ones.  ;D
