On this date in 1908 Mr & Mrs Jacob Murdock set off to become the first couple to travel across the United States by car. They left Los Angeles in their Packard, arriving in New York City 32 days, 5 hours and 25 minutes later. That may be a record, but it’s also a chunk of time and we don’t have that sort of luxury. Instead, you’re going to want to solve this week’s Mystery Car contest before someone else does. I mean, what else have you got to do? When you give your answer, please remember to include both make and model. Good luck!
