    Well that was even easier than I thought it would be. Syrax guessed correctly, although his trepidation evidenced by following the guess with a question mark indicates he wasn’t entirely behind that choice. UD Man came up with the right car, if not the years, and P161911 got the platform mate, which was the Maserati…

    It’s Friday, and that means it must be Mystery Car time. Today’s mystery car is one rare cat as the total number produced was only in the triple digits. It shares its platform with another exclusive car, and one that. . . well that’d be giving away too much. Anyway, you guys are like Harry…

    Well, once again it didn’t take long, proving that the Hooniverse commenters save inane car knowledge in the same way Howard Hughes saved urine. The answer to today’s Mystery Car was almost hit by Armand4, but Alff got the bullseye with the complete name, which is Meyers Manx SR2. The SR2, designed by Bruce Meyers…

    It’s Friday and that usually means two things: radio stations are all playing Loverboy, and Hooniverse has another Mystery Car challenge.  You know what to do about the first- fluff out your mullet and do a drum solo on your desk. For the second, we’re going to ask you to do something that you probably…

    That’s right, it’s a 1953 Moretti 750 Gran Sport. PFG “spit out” the correct answer after first addition an extraneous and kind of embarrassing appendage. Moretti got his start making motorcycle engines, transitioning to cars after WWII. This Gran Sport rocks a 748-cc dohc four that puts out a bantam 71 horsepower. The Michelotti bodywork…

    TGIF, so let’s have some fun. Here’s a car that’s not so common, but that has a pretty rich history, and one that you all should get in no time flat. You know the drill- year, make, model, and engine size, FTW. Regardless of which one of you comes up with the correct answer in…

    Well despite my best efforts to obfuscate  and lead astray by flipping the image, it took almost no time at all for Festiva_Movement to divine that it was in fact a Ferrari 575M Superamerica. Touted as the World’s fastest convertible, the 199-mph flip top rocked the 575M’s hottest motor and an innovative but homely glass…

    Last week’s Mystery Car proved too easy, what with a whole side scoop to go on, so I’m making this one a little tougher, giving you just a thin sliver of car to go on. This, by the way, must be how the Man in the Iron Mask looks at the world, so just be…

    Well, this morning’s mystery car was a little harder than I thought it would be, but commenter extraordinaire Tonyola put his mad knowledge of car scoopery to good use and came up with the correct answer, which, of course is. . .

    Okay ladies and germs, time to fire up that old Google image search and see if you can match the picture above. Let’s see if you can give me make, model, country of origin, engine type and drivetrain. You all are pretty good at these things so I expect the correct answer will come in…
