# 176 (Update)

It is a fabulous photo-find from the family collection of a Fraulein T.L. Thousand in the US.

More interesting to us of course is the veteran supercar with its supercool canvas detachable wings (note the second wing position bracket near the passenger's shoe !), also take note of the twin choice exhaust (with and without silencer).

All this to give you some atmosphere of another era, almost another planet. However the car is made by a company that is still very much alive and that since the dawn of car making. We are not going to tell you more, The photo should tell its story on its own. On the next page yo will not only find the rules, but also a bit more background on this photo. All we want to know from you (in less then 100 words) is the identity of this two seater motorcar. Let the best man, or best woman [email protected]
