Here the new challenge. Please sent PM with Year, Make and Type

It is over and here is the solution. It is a 1934 Brewster Town Car. Brewster was a coachbuilder. With the beginning of the great depression Brewster bodied cars were not selling well. In 1934 Brewster bought 135 Ford Roadster and designed a body for them easily identified by its swoopy fenders and a heart-shaped grille. Stylish and sold for $3,500 it was a hit at the 1934 New York Auto Show. The bodies were worth more than the chassis. These cars were branded Brewster and sold at Rolls-Royce showrooms.

The Barnhardt Oshkosh's have different rear axle than the Minimanfactory one. Because I couldn't find pictures of the axle I made a 3 D model of the new hub, brake drums and rims. And I printed them on my Photon S.

Excellent job

Back to the regular Auto Quiz. Here is the new challenge. Please sent PM with Year, Make and Type.

This car is a 1957 Brütsch V-2 (Volks-2seater, nothing in common with the V-2 rocket bombs of WW2;-) was based on the design of the Bussard and Pfeil. It was equipped with a frameless windshield and a bench for two persons. Total production: just one body without engine. This car is located in the Auto- und Uhrenmuseum in Schramberg/Germany The correct answer were sent in by: GeeBee dw1603 otherunicorn DonW Earl Marischal Congratulations

This Company is know for threewheeled mirco cars.

The engine will be deatailed. I Not sure if I remove the lower Hood Panels, But that would be an idea

October is going to end soon and it is time for the next One-Off-Build Quiz. As usual sent a PM with Year, Make and Type. Don't be confused Wiki is wrong about the quantiy Deadline is Nov. 2, 2020 0:00 CET

I will paint it in the color of Barnhart Heavy Hauling. Red with black hood. I'll get further form Barnhart soon.

This time I was looking for a 1936 - 1940 Triumph Dolomite 14/60 or 14/65. The grill looks like the one from a Hudson Terraplane. They were power bey 4 or 6 cylinder engines. The correct answer were sent in by Earl Marischall sjordan2 GeeBee dw1603 Richard Bartrop DonW otherunicorn Congratulations

Forget About E-Engines and back to normal. Please sent PM with Year, Make and Type.

So this quiz will end now. It seems that cars without an internal combustion engine are a ugly, not easy to find, unreliable specially if they are build in the late 70's / early 80#s like the Unique Mobility Electrek. Beleave it or not around 80 cars were build and sold. On Craiglist is one for sale. Only a few of you had found this BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH Era car. porschercr otherunicorn Bucky Richard Bartrop gbtr6 GeeBee Congratulations

Thanks Dan

Last hint The company that build this car was located in Englewood, Co.

I know a different paint job. I got that book,

Some more progress. Installing the platform is a bit tricky. I will add some support s to the platform so that I could assemble it and then attach it to the frame. The instruction say to attach the single parts to the frame. It is a beast. It would be the largest truck that I have

He thats one for the one of build and I know what it is ?

Jürgen, as i said it is a clean bubble free casting, the surface is smooth like a glass. There are some issues with the back side of the tanks, therefore I print new ones. The wall thickness cab, hood, doors, fenders and lift axle cover is about 0.059" or 1,5mm. Minimanfactory is reliable in shipping and payment. Gabor Kiss is the owner and he speaks German. The kit came in 2 boxes well packed. There is also some photoechted parts. The metal is easy to bent. There are no decals. Although it is a very expensive kit it is worth the money. They have also a KRAZ 255B in 1/24. This is one of my next project.

Let me give you a hint. This car is US build and it had an E-engine

I had ask for some pictures of a civilian Oshkosh M911. I want to build it based on the Minimanfactory Oshkosh M911 in 1/24 scale. This beast is a 4.4 lbs heavy lot of resin parts. The quality is similar to KFS, Modelhaus or Scale Production kits. No holes no bubbles , but 3 negative points. First the spruce specially on the wheels and rims. Secondly the lack of brake chambers on the lift and the front axle. But they are not visible on the finished model. The last issue is the back side of the tanks which requires a lot of cleaning and fill.Here a first mockup. I did a new grill because it would be a lot of work to clean up the holes in it.A buddy did some work on the diesel tanks and I print them also.

Thanks

This car was sold and build in a small series

I hope this car wasn't part of a former quiz. As usual sent PM with Year. Make and Type

As I said this one was part in a former Auto quiz and some had answer this quiz also in 2015. This is a 1989 - 1991 Autech Zagato Stelvio AZ1. Based on a Nissan Leopard powered by a Nissan 3l V6. In my opinion it has the typical Zagato design, you either like it or not. The correct answer where sent in by Richard Bartrop GeeBee porschercr dw1603 otherunicorn matthijsgrit congratulation to all
