Yes, but its name was only Tasco. Otherwise, anytime somebody posts a BMW or a Fiat we should allow any word from these acronyms as valid items for the name chain.

Originally, this car was made by The American Sports Car Company and later coined TASCO, which is its acronym.

Certainly it has become known as the 'Tasco Prototype' but when it actually acquired the name I haven't been able to ascertain.
The name doesn't appear on any of the original plans that you can find on the 'Net.

OK, so, for example, is this 1907 American Underslung Roadster all right to continue then?

Ohh sorry, hands-up as my fault entirely.  I wasn't paying attention 100 percent when I posted this, so my bad! So, back to the 1907 American Underslung Roadster again I guess, and I'll continue with the...
