Could #2 be a horribly disfigured Lola #140 or 142?

Bullzeye! But could you be more precise? I'll lock this for you until your next reply, but no longer than 2 days.

I believe this is one of the "Avallone-Chryslers" that were raced by Carlos Avallone in Brazil. Besides the makeshift bodywork on this one, he also fitted the Lola T142 with T222 bodywork and was quite successful, winning the Brazilian championship something like four times.

No7: Duckhams LM #LM-1 - Ford Cosworth DFV/Nicholson V8/90° 4v DOHC 2993 cc N/A, raced at 1973 LeMans 24 hour race

Good! Both guesses are correct.

8# March 811 (RAM-March) Can-Am 1982

faksta · « **Reply #31 on:** February 28, 2010, 01:02:12 PM »

Everything is right, but I have a slightly different name for this car (.....-March 811, but not RAM). Do you know what it could be? Locked for you until your next reply, but no longer than 2 days.

white12 · « **Reply #32 on:** February 28, 2010, 03:27:53 PM »

I have found it also as Cobra-March

I believe that #15 is a 1947 Urania 500cc Supercharged F2 BMW Boxer.

Tackitt · « **Reply #35 on:** March 01, 2010, 11:36:18 AM »

#19, I believe, is a 1965 Eisert-Chevy Champ car that has been converted to F-5000.

faksta · « **Reply #36 on:** March 01, 2010, 11:48:08 AM »

Twice yes, although I have this Urania as 1948 model. The Eisert is JE67 according to some sources.

It needs a little bump, methinks

Allan L · « **Reply #38 on:** April 26, 2010, 03:39:45 PM »

No 11 has Austin 7 (or perhaps Dixi) wheels at the rear and possibly Austin 10 wheels at the front. If it is an Austin 7 special, I don't recognise it. The background doesn't look British so maybe the colonies somewhere.

faksta · « **Reply #39 on:** April 26, 2010, 04:48:34 PM »

I think the rear wheels may rather be Dixi ones than Austin 7, and no, the background is not British.

#13 - AC by Anisio Campos?

faksta · « **Reply #41 on:** April 27, 2010, 05:00:45 AM »

Bingo!

#9 Neudo Mota Prototype based on Malzoni and VW parts

faksta · « **Reply #43 on:** April 27, 2010, 08:13:25 AM »

Mostly right. Although I know him as Neuder Mota. His nickname was 'Dezinho', and that is the name I have seen applied to his car also.

Allemano · « **Reply #44 on:** April 27, 2010, 08:24:44 AM »

probably it had a exemplary drag coefficient...

Good picture! Seems to be battling with #13 from this puzzle

#17- A 1965 Merlyn Mk6A ?

faksta · « **Reply #47 on:** April 27, 2010, 10:25:38 AM »

It is not Merlyn (and not British at all)

woodinsight · « **Reply #48 on:** May 20, 2010, 05:02:36 AM »

17# Appears to have a Lotus 23B body but if the car is not British then I'll hazard a guess as a 1970s Dona Special from Canada which used an Alfa Romeo engine on a Lotus base.

faksta · « **Reply #49 on:** May 20, 2010, 11:32:12 AM »

Sorry, but it is not Lotus body, not Canada and not 1970s.

Here is another picture of #17.
