Car name quiz

Radio quiz on Weekend Edition - Sunday as broadcast on NPR today.
If you come up with an answer and want to enter, Google the above
show.

Take an eleven letter word and add a K.
Rearrange the letters to form a new word with the names of three cars
in it.
What is the original 11letter word?

Kia might be the key.
Lark might, also, but that is just one part of the Studebaker line,
not a different style, like Vega was with Chevy.

Deadline in mid-week for submission to NPR.

Better get the challenge right to start with

From http://www.npr.org/templates/story/s...oryId=15259890 the
question is:

Name a country in 11 letters that has an R in its name.
Change the R to a K. Rearrange all the letters to name
three makes of automobiles.

What is the country, and what are the autos?

And, no, I don't have an answer.

Obviously, you were right. Did they pull your name from the hat of
right answers?
