#19 - Coral Special 1964
It was originally based on VW/Porsche mechanicals and had a Lycoming flat-four aircraft engine.
This was later replaced by a 1700cc Porsche Carrera engine.

That's the one!
obviousely ... after I checked the source again it seems it's not definitely clarified, but however I have it listed as that.

woodinsight

I'm still carrying out research on the two Nedlohs.
I think this is the second one and I'm still trying to find another source of information.

#14 - the Porsche badge on the nose fooled me.
Something strange about this car you say......haven't pinned that down yet and the racing number doesn't point to the car competing in International races.
Anyway, is it American?

No, it's not American..

woodinsight

Okay thanks, just trying to narrow it down - European?

Sorry for jumping in, but is it maybe one of those Japanese scaled down replicas for their local racing series?

I presume you're at least on the right trail...

faksta

The car is for K4GP? The builder is maybe Madhouse? It's hard to read Japanese...

Allemano

If you find a picture of the car you'll know its name immediately..
Anyway: K4 is correct mate! And the builder... well, it's none of the mentioned, but known here on this place...

faksta

908J-CVT is its name, by Watanabe seemingly.

Ah..see above, I have modified the message :)

P.S. Suzuki Cervo 550cc engine...

Allemano

#93
even that is not enough, even though undoubtly you've got the right car!

Allemano

....locked for faksta of course!

faksta

It reads 'Porshce' on its side... Used by Team J-II.

Allemano

#96
Right! 'Porshce' is the word I was waiting for!



indeed a shrunk Porsche 908:

faksta

About the others, #2 is clearly a Formula Vee with a closed cockpit, while #20 seems like F5000. Suspect both could be American, but can't find them yet.

Allemano

Both are American and #02 is a Formula V, but #20 isn't a F5000 car.

faksta

Formula B?
Indeed, now I see it doesn't look as mighty as F5000 should have looked.
