Just for Fun - Name that car !

Nobody wants to guess? I'll give it one more day.

Drawing a blank from me.

Looks more streamlined than most from that era, and is that a clamshell hood? I'd guess some manufacturer that has had some experience with airplanes as well.

Ok, maybe this was a little too obscure for people.

Yup, but it's easy to see the Cramer Comet was built on the Le Sabre base.

No, the ecomodder black-out lasted a bit too long

I've seen it first hand last July

While clearly influenced by the Le Sabre, both are unique cars and only one of each exists.

A little info on the car and it's knock-offs:
1951 GM LeSabre - Kustomrama

I was leaning towards Packard too, in particular one the later 'Packard' Studebakers. Volvo could do a lot worse than to copy 1950's Studebaker - they were innovative cars.

Okay, here's one.

Deora, but yeah. It's a car I fell in love with when I was a kid. Which was before Hot Wheels even existed!

This seems to have paused, so here's a new one. A non-FE friendly "specialist coupe" from Europe, and top of my lottery winner list.



Double bonus if you get the location too.
