607:2 LITRE DROPHEAD COUPE, early 50s (1952?)
5380:MARLENE ROADSTER, 1988
8539:MODEL 15 RUNABOUT, 1909

607: The AC 2-Litre is an automobile that was produced by AC of Thames Ditton in Surrey, England between 1947 and 1956. Two and, from 1952, four-door saloons were sold. In addition, as from 1949, a small number of drophead coupés and "Buckland" tourers were produced. The pic below is a 1949 example, but they remained more or less the same through '56.

5380: Mercedes 500K 1932 Convertible Replica Marlene, built by Classic Roadsters Ltd, Fargo North Dakota in 1988. The company was founded in 1979 by Gary Rutherford. The Duchess was their first car, a VW based MG TD. The front engine Duchess was introduced in 1982. They also produced the Duke (based on an SS 100 Jaguar), Marlene (a 7/8ths scale Mercedes),  Baron (a four seat version of the Marlene), Sebring (a stock appearing Austin Healy 5000; available in front engine and rear engine (VW), Sebring MX (a Healey on steroids, their high performance answer to the Cobra, and the MX, their own Cobra, with a longer wheelbase and longer passenger compartment than the typical Cobra kits.

8539: I had convinced myself this was the Cameron. The September, 1908 issue of Horseless Age, in an article about the new crop of Pneumatic Runabouts, gave a detailed overview of Cameron's Model 14 Runabout, followed by this: "Model 15 is identical with Model 14, with the exception that the wheel base is 94 inches, the body hung lower, wire wheels used, and the weight reduced to about 1,000 pounds". But a copy of an advertisement from 1909 suggests their model 15 runabout was a 1918 model only, or perhaps didn't reach production. So, can can I get a clue

607: Yes, but it's amatter of numbers, now.
5380: As always very detailed replies but this is not the Classic Roadster's Marlene...another company built that car too.
8539: After such a detective work it's a pity to say it's wrong...there was a Model 15 in Cameron's line-up too, it was a 2-passenger open car but was called 'FEATHERWEIGHT FLYER'.

I'm sorry - I don't know what this means.  :scratch:

**If you find the right name and the answer is correct but 'it's a matter of numbers' it means that the maker share its name with one or more others -Bugatti (1), Bugatti (2), etc..-.
In this case, your nearly right (or nearly wrong) answer will bring you -1.
I have quite a number of AC...which one is this?

The worse is over, now!
The maker is AC, but in my index I have AC (1), AC (2), AC (3) and so on.
You just have to guess which one (1,2,3, etc..) is this one, and in case you are wrong, it won't be -10, but just a -1, because ...it's just a matter of numbers!  ;D

Perhaps, the numbers moved a bit, as 100077 should be alphabetically behind 100017 (Weiss-Manfred), but I have a try at Karosseriewerke Weinsberg, because they made some bodywork for the US Army after WW2.
