Cars and Tuners - Solved by neilshouse,porridgehead, Ray B, @re & max

Pardon the pun.  ;D

Another "connections" puzzle. In this puzzle, connect the name of the car to the name of the musical performer that shares some or all of the car's name.

Enjoy!  :)

#8 Cizeta V16 T, also called the Cizeta Moroder V16 T, and #19 Giorgio Moroder - who financed the project and therefore got his name on the car.
#18 Julio Iglesias and #4, the first car built in Argentina with domestic components, by Manuel Iglesias, first driven in November, 1907.

2 is Wynton Marsalis, 14 is a 1908 Winton Touring Car
16 Ferrari Daytona, 31 Ronny and the Daytonas
20 Tornado Tempest, 22 The Tempests (I'm kinda guessing here, simply because of the proximity of Rochester NY to Springfield MA)

Five out of six - not bad!

#22 has no connection with #20 that I know of, although it's possible one of the persons in that pic owned a Tornado, survived a tornado, or drove a Toronado with a missing chrome letter.

I'm looking for Garth Hudson somewhere in those pics, but maybe he is there without his beard.

Good ol' Clem! I shoulda known!

Errr... well... maybe not. I probably shoulda known that I was going to pick the wrong damn name to google as a band. Glad somebody got it though.

For what it's worth, on the cover of their single "Monte Carlo", they appear piled into a Citroen DS Chapron Cabriolet. Nice touch.

According to a Casey Kasem show I heard, the Tornados were the first British group to have a #1 US hit (Telstar)in the rock era.

Most of these musicians and bands are a bit too old for a guy born in Europe in the late seventies.  ???

Suitable then, that the two I solved were a Spaniard and an Italian...

I thought we had to make pairs and I see that many Id'ed single images. If it's Ok, I'll add that:
#6 is Nat "King" Cole but I'm not sure which one of the cars is a Cole. Probably #26, with a Springfield body.
#17 is a Hudson and #28 are the Hudson Brothers.
(I've found some matches since...)

To clarify, point's are for pairings only, but to save peole having to guess car or artist names multiple times, I'm listing them as sort of a bread-crumb trail for all puzzlers.

#17 is a Hudson and #28 are the Hudson Brothers.


How could I have missed the Hudson Brothers? The Hudson Brothers Razzle-Dazzle show was a staple of my youth, right up there with Motor Mouse, the Banana Splitz and Wacky Racers.

The fact that I missed that #28 was a Hudson is something else altogether.

I think the point here is that I am getting old. Forgetful too. Probably doddering. Forgetful too.

I must confess, being a foreigner, that I had NEVER heard of the Hudson brothers. Being also an old baby-boomer also, I was desperately looking for Graham Nash and Garth Hudson...
I was sure of this one, but how about my guess for the Cole, Mr. Puzzell?
