For 1 point I would like to know the venue, the year and make/model of the car on the right
-
Zandvoort - 1949 FIAT 1100 Gilco Sports
-
Zandvoort is correct, year is close but the car isn't a Fiat Gilco
-
date is probably 10th june 1951 the driver in the centre is van dieten
-
Well, the one in the middle is indeed van Dieten. But I need to know what car we see on the right. The year is still close, but not 1951....
-
1948 Cisitalia 202MM
-
Not a Cisitalia
-
Up
-
Zandvoort 11 June 1950 and Maurice Gatsonides in the Gatso 4000 coupé?

That's the one ! A point for you. Here is a side view, strange car...
-
It seems to have lost its cyclops headlight over the years. As the other headlights seem to protrude less than in the 1948 picture, perhaps a nose job was done after an accident.
We had the car in its initial guise before: http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=12949.0

I also saw that the head lights were a bit different from the original 1948 pic, could well be because of an accident. I could ask some of my friends who know all about Zandvoort history

The car on the left is also a Gatso !

Thank you Saco. I thought I was going mad - which is left and which is right?
-
In this case, I think SACO meant "Right as you look at it" rather than "Grid [stage] right".
Is that an RM Riley on the third row? Hardly likely to provide any competition to an XK120.
is it!

I thought it looked like a "waterfall" grille of a late-30s American sedan. I think the Dutch were like the British in this era with regards to production car races - if it was in production, then it raced against anything else "in production". Sports cars and saloons all lumped together.
-
I wanted to say: there is 2 Gatso! ;D
-
There are indeed 2 Gatso's. The white one on the left is a Gatso 4000 Roadster driven by Klaas Barendregt, in the middle the XK120 Roadster from Johannes van Dieten and on the right the Gatso 4000 Coupé driven by Maus Gatsonides himself
