This time I was looking for a that Ford had designed for the UK market in 1932. It was the Ford Model Y. The design of the Y was in 1933 used for the 1933 US models. To make it a bit harder I had asked for the Coachbuilder of this Drophead Coupé. It was build by Salmson & Sons from Tickford/UK. Later known as Tickford. To be presice this car is a 1933 Ford Model Y Cairn Drophead Coupé Chassis no. Y18680. One of only 4 cars build by Salmson & Sons on a Model Y chassis from 1932 to 1934. All of the four car still exist, 3 in the UK and one in Germany. The last you can see on the picture. The picture shows it in the original yellow/black paint job. Now it is green and Black. It was repainted 2010 - 2013. Since 2 years it is mine.

The in question is a 1956 Facel Vega FV2B convertible. Onthe english wikipedia side it is menationed as a FVS, so therefore this is also correct. The FV2 / FV2B was build from 1955 - 1956. And it can be identified from its presuccsor FV/FV1 by the panoramic windscreen. the differences between the different variants of the FV2/FV2B/FV3 are under the hood (Chrysler engines) except the FV3B and FV4. Thes models where only build as coupes. The other verarinats could be ordered as coupe or a convertible. The body of the FV-Series was in pricipal an extented version of the Ford Comete body.

I just got 2 correct answers. So let me give you a hint what kind of car this is. The country where this car was build, doesn't has a peace contract since 1953, just an armistice agreement.

I had change the picture because a Google picture search would make it to easy for you. So try it agian. If you know the country then it must be very easy for you to find found the year, make and type of this car.

This time it was very very tough. But you guys found out what car it is. This time,I was looking for the first South Korean car. The name means "inception" or "beginning". It was based on the Jeep and it was partly made out of petrol barrels. It is a 1955 - 1963 Sibal

Yes that is what I forgot to mention

I got one of those Beaver Float Planes. It is simple but it has potential to improve it

To Ace-Garageguy, Bucky and sjordan2 I had check my inbox and there was enough space available and I can receive messages. I had cleaned my inbox so please try it again.

This time it was tougher than some of you thought. I was looking for a 1948 -1950 Rovin D3. The differences between the D3 and it successor the D4 can be over seen when you see the car. And the internet isn't a help in that case. The car that I was asking for is also mentioned as a D4 but it isn't. I had taken the pictures at the 2018 Techno Classic in Essen/Germany and it was marked as a D3. But somer people say that this was a D4 although the description on this car said D3. So what are the differences.? Take a look at the pictures and you could see the second chrome strip ad the lower edge of the body. The grill is bigger than on a D3 and the D3 has sucide door. The engine of the D4 is also bigger (462 cc and 13hp)

This van was build in thr German Democratic Republic or East German from 1961 - 1990. When it was released in 1961 compared to its western counterparts like VW Typ 2, Ford Taunus Transit or Tempo Viking , it was state of the art. In regard of roominess and suspension layout it was better the than the western counternparts.. The big drawback was the high fuel consumption of the 3 cylinder two stroke engine. Over its long production times it falls back behind its competiors, because the lack of improvements, as usual for cars from eastern europe during that era. I had driven this van in a comparision of different van concepts for a german classic car magazine. This 1963 Barkas B1000 competes against 1970 VW Typ 2 and my 1969 Ford Transit. There was no winner in this comparision, but the suspension of the Brakes was better than the one in the VW and Ford. It had a car like driving . The engine sound was annoying and the seating position for a 6'2" tall guy like me wasn't that cumfortable.
