could anybody tell me the brand
I'm sur I've seen this emblem before, but I can't remember

I can't tell, did SirAndy take the picture for you?

no, but why do you think so???

it's part of a game we're playing in a forum in germany
one posts a part of a car photo and the others try to find out the correct car
the first correct answer then allows you to go on => endless game, but very interesting
well, I'm pretty sure that I know this car, but I can't remember

give us hint. what country is it made in.

just a guess one of the caddys for Lemans from the fifties. they won one two if think.

so I thought maybe someone of you could help me

Long standing joke. SirAndy is very skilled at taking blurry pictures.

I'm thinking something from the late '40's

Kieser?

The fins look like something off a Facel Vega

1950's -1960's French car, used a 350 Chrysler v-8....

I had a heck of a ride in one once......

but the emblem won't fit to a Facel Vega ...

Mmmmmm...Austin Martin??

Lisa

I guess you mean Aston Martin, but it's not

Car? My guess is Facel Vega Facellia coupe. 57-59
Logo? Damn if it doesn't look like 50's Buick. IIRC someone did stuff a 455ci Buick in one of these things.

waay to go Howard!

Logo..

Ooops yes, that's what I meant
Sorry....good job Howie!

Lisa

Hard one Howard! Good work!


M

Don't bet the plantation on it.

if we look carefully to the details, we can see that neither the logo fits to the Buick nor the rear ends fit to the Facel Vega

but I appreciate every input

Saw a bigass 40's Cadillac Limo yesterday and the emblem looked an awful lot like the one in question ........ The Cap'n

I saw that logo on the front of a 10 yd dump truck in NortDakota... the letters within the red area said AUTOCAR....

........b

now I know a little more about the car:

it's from 1953
it's from France or Italy

and I've got a pic with a little more details:



so, maybe someone could help me find out

We're done. Siata 208s. Just saw one week before WCC.

Damn you're good

Dam Howard you're the KING !

Well done old chap!!
CLINLOGOSRUS

well done Howard

I knew this car, but only from the front ...

so, if anybody's interested we could play the same game here
one posts a detail-pic from a car and all others try to find out
the first correct answer wins => this one posts the next pic
(in this case Howard would go on )

never ending, but funny - and interesting

Let's play, Howard come on post a pic.
