Topic: Solved - MJW #120 - Sports Racing Part 1

[woodinsight]

#1 - agreed it looks very Zagato/Abarth but it's not that - wrong country
#9 - nothing to do with Porsche - wrong country again

I'll keep putting small clues in from time to time so don't give up and thanks for your guesses.

[D-type]

Is #15 one of the Alfa Romeo tpo 33 family?

[woodinsight]

It is - in a way - but it wasn't built in Italy if you see what I mean

[woodinsight]

I'm going to move this up to the Pros now as I have another group puzzle to post before the festive period

[Allemano]

#12 Mean Barquette with a 1000cc NSU engine.

[faksta]

#4 is a Chanabe CH2
#10 must be a South African Mpiti - Renault
#14 is a Tanto Faz from Brazil
#15 looks like a CD-Grac a CD-Grac modified by Gilles Pequegnot - it was called GP, as far as I understand
#16 is an H-Mod Aardvark - Panhard
#17 reminds me of a Furia (we've had it several times before, though, if it is )

[Joćo]

#3 : 1948-49 John Tout Peugeot Racing Special. 1939 Peugeot 402 based
#14 : FNM 2000 JK Tanto Faz from my city,Petropolis.
#17 : 1971 furia FNM Bianco

EDIT : Oh! I'm late  

[faksta]

#9 looks suspisiously like a Mercury GT, which you've posted before...

[Allemano]

#4 Chanabe Porsche ? CH2

Edit: too late! Darn!! 

[faksta]

Does #1 have a DKW power?

[Djetset]

#3 is the 1948 John Tout Peugeot 402 Racing Special from South Africa
#15 is the CD-GRAC

STOP PRESS: Ah, just looked at the previous posts and looks like I was a tad too late

[Allemano]

#13 John Cooper's "Pignatelli"

[woodinsight]

#12 Mean Barquette with a 1000cc NSU engine.

As I stated in an earlier post, I think it's based on a Mean but I have another name for it.

#4 is correct
#10 is correct
#14 is correct
#15 is correct
#16 is correct
#17 is a Furia protototipo from 1970 but the title is missing two words i.e. Furia x x prototipo - so locked for you until your next reply

[woodinsight]

#3 : 1948-49 John Tout Peugeot Racing Special. 1939 Peugeot 402 based
#14 : FNM 2000 JK Tanto Faz from my city,Petropolis.
#17 : 1971 furia FNM Bianco

EDIT : Oh! I'm late  

#3 is correct
#14 is correct but you were beaten by faksta
#17 is a Furia but I've locked it for faksta to come up with the correct name

[woodinsight]

#9 looks suspisiously like a Mercury GT, which you've posted before...

#9 is not a Mercury but a much more common marque rarely pictured in this form

[woodinsight]

#4 Chanabe Porsche ? CH2

Edit: too late! Darn!! 

Sorry Allemano, but faksta beat you to it

[woodinsight]

Does #1 have a DKW power?

#1 doesn't have DKW power - wrong country

[woodinsight]

#3 is the 1948 John Tout Peugeot 402 Racing Special from South Africa
#15 is the CD-GRAC

STOP PRESS: Ah, just looked at the previous posts and looks like I was a tad too late

Sorry Djetset but you were unfortunately a tad too late.
Plenty more to guess yet though.....

[woodinsight]

#13 John Cooper's "Pignatelli"

#13 is correct

[Allemano]

but #1 is a Zagato bodied car, isn't it?

[faksta]

Maybe you're looking for 'Furia FNM JK' prototipo? To my knowledge this car is a chassis #2 which was originally built with Chrysler/Dodge V8 and recently restored with FNM 2150 powerplant, which was initially installed on #1 car.

[faksta]

Also, is #19 some British 1172 Formula car?

[Allemano]

#12 Mean Barquette with a 1000cc NSU engine.

As I stated in an earlier post, I think it's based on a Mean but I have another name for it.

Is "CanAm" the word you're waitinig for? http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=8451.25

Although FNM JK should probably also be included - let's say I'm looking for - Furia FNM JK x x prototipo
I've added a frontal view so it should now be obvious what I mean.
Still locked for you
