Missing Cars #3 / Solved
« on: July 25, 2011, 04:35:12 AM »
Again I shamelessly exploit the "missing car" puzzle concept, and engage in manufacturing another blatant copy. Here's a grouping of pics with the cars blanked out. I trust some will be quite easy, and at least one will be maddeningly difficult to crack. Points will be added once the cars are all ID'd.

Enjoy! :)

These all appear correct. I have some major 'life stuff' going on today, and will update later today, or tomorrow.

Thank you for your patience.

I think Arunas is quite right. Or are you missing the "GT4" in the model name, as it is an Alpine A108 GT4.

My bad - I have it logged as an A110 GT4. Two heads (in this case, your's and Arunas') are better than one (mine)  :)

It's not that bad  ;)

I searched a little and found out that you really can't tell, as the GT4 was a model of its own. From the 263 GT4 built, there were just 20 with the 956 cc engine, making those GT4s of the type A108L, and the rest were of the type A110L with 1108 cc, 1296 cc or 1255 cc engines.
