What is it?

Recently Bernie Brouillet sent me two very interesting photographs. I attach here a small section from one photo. There's something rather extraordinary about the vehicle this photo belongs to, and I'm not aware that it exists in captivity - if it ever did. Can you guess what it is?

When I sent the picture to Dan it was nearly crystal clear. Perhaps a few pixels or electrons got confused and it appears a bit too blurry in this initial scan.

Be patient, that kind of picture has a way of becoming clearer with time.

It is something I've never seen before but is likely of interest to members of this forum, that's why I sent it to Dan.

So let me offer a clue as to what it is:

"Go Ask Alice..."

There might be another clue or two needed, so have fun and guess often!

Thanks,

Bernie B.

Wow, Bernie - even I don't get the connection, and I've got your photo! :oops: Hmmm...

And here's another clue for you all
The walrus was Paul


Sorry, my Sixties is showing! Scratch that. But in the interest of progressive disclosure, here's another pic from roughly the same area, a little bit more in focus... C'mon, Eagle Eyes Matthew!

I'm going to guess it's a shortened car where the back seat has been eliminated. I THINK what I'm seeing is where the driver side rear fender fin meets the driver door.
Dick.

I can figure out a door handle and Sport Fury trim?

Bernie reminds me, there's something else about the photograph he sent that's particularly interesting...

In time! But, start thinking outside the box...
