#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.

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?

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

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

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...

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.

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

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