I don't know whether this little racer has a name of its own, but I just want to know its base.

For one point, please respond and identify the base of this car.

up again

How about a Morris 10 or 12 of around 1938 as the donor car?

Wendax · « **Reply #4 on:** September 06, 2013, 03:45:02 AM »

Not a Morris

British?

French ?

It seems to be road-registered. Is it maybe based on a Simca 8 ?

Wendax · « **Reply #10 on:** September 07, 2013, 02:20:21 PM »

Not Simca-based

nicanary · « **Reply #11 on:** September 07, 2013, 07:00:28 PM »

Rosengart ?

Wendax · « **Reply #12 on:** September 08, 2013, 03:21:17 AM »

Yes, locked for you to have a guess at the base model.

nicanary · « **Reply #13 on:** September 08, 2013, 05:52:00 AM »

8CV Six ?

Wendax · « **Reply #14 on:** September 08, 2013, 06:44:46 AM »

Not a six-cylinder. One more try before I unlock.

nicanary · « **Reply #15 on:** September 08, 2013, 06:46:46 AM »

5CV ?

Wendax · « **Reply #16 on:** September 08, 2013, 06:52:46 AM »

It is not the 5 CV (LR 49), but you are close.

Unlocked.

75america · « **Reply #17 on:** September 08, 2013, 07:07:13 AM »

4 CV?

Wendax · « **Reply #18 on:** September 08, 2013, 07:30:54 AM »

I need a model name and the LR-number.

nicanary · « **Reply #19 on:** September 08, 2013, 08:00:01 AM »

LR42N ?

Wendax · « **Reply #20 on:** September 08, 2013, 08:07:05 AM »

I think you mean the right one, but you have to switch a number and a letter, and I need the model name too.

nicanary · « **Reply #21 on:** September 08, 2013, 09:33:42 AM »

LR4N2 Super 5 ?

Wendax · « **Reply #22 on:** September 08, 2013, 09:42:19 AM »

Yes, now this point is yours. It seems to be a quite recently built special, powered by a 950 cc Reliant engine.

One more point for you.

nicanary · « **Reply #23 on:** September 08, 2013, 10:24:25 AM »

I think the Reliant engine is now one of the range accepted by the 750 Register for power units, since the original Austin 7hp motors are getting a bit old and scarce. As the Rosengart is in effect a licensed Austin, maybe the French owner intends to use the car in 750MC races ?

Wendax · « **Reply #24 on:** September 08, 2013, 11:03:01 AM »

Perhaps, I just know the very short sales ad.
