It can't be a DUKW, those things are huge! But, then again, I can't see the vehicle in the picture, so...
 
Is it a "Seep"?


By any chance...is it Chinese? I know the guys in it look Russian, but I was wondering...
 
1995 MIata with a roof rack and a snorkel muffler for river crossings !
 
Whoops, sorry for being late, thats a 1950's Land Rover during an exhibition to the Polish Army...TheCracker won!

This is the car that I saw online. I recognized the red paint and the triangle on the fender/door and looked up Red Alfa Romeo, and eventually found this:

-But just this morning, I found the exact picture you used...Was this the web page?
 
ya, the yellow crap is a merc E-class. 2 generations behind the current model.
 
yup gordonfan24, i stumbled upon it, cant remember what it was i was looking for :dunce:
 
I think that little rocket coming out of the hood is a Buick feature. I can't imagine Buick produced anything smaller then twice that size in that era though.

Try not to think about the Buicks too hard, cause it's not a Buick. And I agree! :)
 
Sorry, but that's incorrect also.

I'll try to find more info on it to get some hints...
 
Here's some hints:
-The compant only lasted four years, 1947-1951
-The company was Canadian
-Here's a big one: All models from this company were hard-top convertibles
-Part of the fold-down top formed some of the rear deck lid
-It was rear-wheel drive
-It had ±40hp
-0-50mph = 17secs
-Fuel economy of a reported 35mpg
-It was sold at $995 (USD)

I think that'll do for now...:D
 
I may not know obscure cars, but I rock at google.

It's a playboy, made by the Playboy Motor Car Corporation. I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the earlier Jordan Playboy, but you can imagine what a google image search for that turns up.
This doesn't say anything about it being Canadian though. AFAIK, the only Canadian car was the Bricklin SV-1, and it's sort of debateable.

Huh, that's the same site I got all my info from...what are the odds? :lol:

Okay, your go. 👍 (Even though you never did actually say the name of the car. But I'll give it to you. :D)

:D I guess so.

And, oh, that's what that means. Well, that's good to know. :D


And about it's Canadian-ship (?), I was going by the name of the site, and I figured it was Canadian, but I also saw the towns Buffalo, NY; and Cleveland, OH; so I don't know, but it doesn't matter, you got it anyway. I figured it would be another hint to work with.
 
First, I apologize for the double post, but I didn't want to edit a post I did 3 days ago just to add something that shows how long it's been...

Back to the post -
Congratulations, Emohawk, I think you've stumped everyone who's looked at this thread lately. I wanna say go ahead and post another pic, but I don't know the rules to the game...I would if I were you, though.

And what was that? I know it's built for snow, so it's probably Siberian or Icelandic or Canadian...but I looked all over Google, and couldn't find it at all. :grumpy: :D

Whoops. My basement flooded a little, so I've been offline and unable to keep track of this.
A little ironically, given my situation, this thing is NOT built for snow at all. It's amphibious :sly: . It's an Altkam Stalker, and that's about all I know about it.

Here's a new one then:

Man, you're good at this! :) I have no idea right off the top of my head, but I'm sure Google will become my new best friend...:D
 
I don't know what it is, but it reminds me of a early 300z.
