Oh, and while we're at it, anyone know who made this? Seems to just be a glassfibre bonnet on a Spridget, but i'm SURE I've seen it before, and I think it was on this site..... anyone know? Seen in a 1968 edition of Autocar magazine


Somewhere I've got a photo of this car. It's actually Mini based but beyond that I have not a clue...

Do both pictures show Mercedes-Benz C111-II? If not, what are those two cars?

Another question: Is 1969 Mercedes-Benz C111-I also known as C111 or the C111 is another car?

Are these really US numberplates? I thought these are from Australia, but I may be wrong.

Can you identify the cars or at least the country, where the photo was taken based on the number plate?

I spent some time looking through pictures of Simson-Supra's car, but can't find the same radiator so far..

This Battlecar Galactica car is somewhere on this site, but still with no answer...I'll give you the link.
Has this car been featured or solved before?
I doubt it.
