ummm, no.

The radiator cap ornament, a dancing elephant, was designed by the maker’s son, Rembrandt.

No... you are thinking of Lucien Freud.

Shall I wait until the others have taken a stab?

That would be nice. There are many people who know more about cars than I do!

I could search using the hints you've given, but that would be unsporting.

That’s not an option. The only person up and around is ol’ Drunk Jim, and besides the fact that he always reeks of alcohol, he doesn’t shower very often. *shudder* My poor sensitive nose has a tough time with old body odors. In every sense of the word “old.”

Maybe I’ll just go have my breathing treatment, instead.

Sounds like you have a good plan. I have been running the vacuum. I’ll go for crickets when PetSmart opens.

Nope... I’ll wait for moose to take a guess.

Another hint:

The maker was Italian but his factory was in France.

John DeLorean?

Nope.

John Delorean was barely two years old when this model type was first built, not to mention that the stainless steel gull wing DMC 12, of “Back to the Future” was assembled in Northern Ireland.

I was actually making an attempt at humor there ;-).

I would like to point out that the very existence of such a person as King Zog of Albania proves that God has a heck of a sense of humor.

As the maker reacted, “...even refused to sell one to King Zog of Albania, claiming that “the man’s table manners are beyond belief!”

That seems an odd criterion, unless the manufacturer expected Zog to eat in the car.
