That was kind of fun but too easy. Years ago didn't Old Cars (the newspaper magazine) have a puzzle that would just show a part of the car like the tail light or fender or something and you had to guess what car it was.

That would be fun. I vote for the "dagmars" on 55-56 Packards and same on mid-50s Cads and Mercs (maybe others) as the initial quiz.

No way would anyone under 40 get that unless they actually owned one of those cars now. First, you'd have to explain to them who Dagmar was.

Just can't stay away

43 out of 48 or 90%. A bit rusty on the Nash and Kaiser. Unfortunately, most of the independents were gone by the time I came around.

52% (25 right out of 48). The average score is 73%

The result consists of using the one of four chance + one Packard and two Studebakers. Are you ready to go through the same test with 1950s European cars?

Tom (Rocky46), may you do well!

If one or another of our American or Australian friends will try to go through, he will learn the hard way the great distance between the continents.

You will need a pencil and a slip of paper to write the results down. Godspeed!
