98 Have spend ages googling and been through every page of three classic cars books. Have found car whose profile looks right but radiator grill doesn't match. Any clues. please?

Carry on tearinghair for bit longer Can't give clues yet. Am a reformed character.

[tearinghair]

Wouldn't be asking if I hadn't exhausted all possibilities I can think of.

[podger123]

If you carry on googling the words given you will find the answer I'm sure. Try car radiators as well. Or the Quizmail forum that's always being advertised here by fibonacci or quizzing.co.uk.
When's the closing date? Tuesday? or the following Tuesday?

If you had a way of uploading the picture, I will gladly help you with an answer if possible.

[tearinghair]

Thanks, squarebear, but I'm not sure how to do that. I'll have to make a sensible guess - can't stand leaving blanks.

There goes podger123 again, putting his spoke in but being unhelpful as usual. If he doesn`t want to help why doesn`t he simply keep quiet?
tearinghair, look for a model name which contains the name of a bird of prey.

[podger123]

Like squarebear I have no pictures to see. They aren't online. I thought I was being helpful. Sometimes googling different combinations of words brings up the image quicker but as in the past I expect you'll be asking for answers soon!

[tearinghair]

Thanks Virgil. The car I mentioned in my original post does have the name of a bird of prey, but unless I haven't found the model for the correct year yet, the grill isn't the same - very different, in fact. Are there other models named after birds of prey? Possibly from the same marque? I have looked, but can't find any.

podger - the day you are helpful on this site is the day I win the lottery.

[podger123]

You won the lottery on Saturday? I was giving answers throughout the day! What quizzes and crosswords are you doing? I'll help you if it isn't GFQ, Quizmail or a minor quiz that needs more than a bit of brain power. Go on I dare you to post a question!

tearinghair, I`m not an expert on radiator grilles or even on cars. I was probably just lucky.
The name of the manufacturer contains the name of an occupation. Hope this helps.
