Whaddyacallit #499
« on: September 17, 2010, 04:50:16 PM »


No, it's not an electric shaver. Ever seen this ?

If you did, please respond below and let us know when this scale model was made, and whatever else you know about it.
I have no identification for this car myself, only the year. So a detailed answer will be worth two points..

If you haven't registered yet, you need to do so in order to reply with your answer. You can do so by clicking here.
Also, please be sure to check out our other puzzles, and, please post a puzzle of your own if you'd like - the more, the merrier.

Thanks!

"1949 Futuristic Body Design" is what I have too, but it's not enough for a point, not to mention two.

The Faurecia looks similar to a Tatra 603.
Edit: Ah, because it is

I'm expecting an uptick in traffic in the next few days. Maybe some of the newcomers will recognize it?

I uploaded the puzzle picture again.
Regarding the Black hole ghosts topic http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=29942.msg354162#new I can't give any clue about his one, because I simply haven't got the answer myself.
