Title: 1954 Turin Motor Show (ex MPC#045)
Post by: Iluvatar on January 22, 2014, 08:41:34 AM
Hi folk!

Let's start a very huge puzzle...
Please read carefully the following instruction!

You see a picture of a car at a motor show... it looks to be a repost, and indeed it is, but... it's only the first of a lot of cars...

At first, identify the car (easy) and the place and the year... this is maybe the easiest point of the puzzle...

When the first car is found you can start to guess about the cars near to the previous one (in that motor show). "Near" means in front, beside, behind, etc... in short: there shouldn't be other cars between the former and the new car you try to identify (and they shouldn't be too far)...

When you correctly identify you can go ahead with a new car, but near to one of the cars you have found.
You'll recieve +1 points for every correct and complete guess.

You can also try to guess a car near to a car found by someone else... but in this case you'll recieve -1 points if the guess is wrong!
This last rule does not apply if there are no free cars near to the cars you have previously identified.

You cannot have guess at cars far from any identified car.

Two very important rules!
- One car for one post, no multiple guesses!!
- When you identify a car you have to wait until someone else find another car before posting your next guess.
If you don't follow these two rules, the first time you'll recieve -1 points, and the second you are out of this puzzle! ...so... please... follow these rules!!
;)

Two other less important rules
- You have to prove your guess, because I'm not aware of all the car of this motor show... ;)
- I set a temporary limit of 20 cars identified by a single person, to leave the puzzle open to more people... when you identify your 20th car please stop guessing! In the future I'll decide if this limit should be removed...

Points will be added at the end of the puzzle. I won't remove points... if you have a negative score you'll recieve 0 points...

I hope you will enjoy this puzzle... please let me know if the rules are not clear...

Good luck! :)

Be careful! Rules are little changed from the previous version of the puzzle!

I hope not to have scared you with all these rules...  :)
You can try at least to identify the car in the picture... it's easy... and when and where it was showed at a motor show...
Let's go experts!!  ;)
Title: Re: MPC#045 (2)

Yes! Locked for you to tell me the motor show in which it's showed in the puzzle picture...
Title: Re: MPC#045 (2)

was it the Turin show of 1955?

Turin is correct... but why 1955 for a 1954 car??  ???
Locked again for you to tell me the right year...  ;)
Title: Re: MPC#045 (2)

Title: Re: MPC#045 (2)

Title: Re: MPC#045 (2)
Post by: kwgibbs on January 26, 2014, 08:37:46 PM
It seems like this was the very last monviso,1100 coupe fiat,before Ghia took them in?

Yes, 1954 was the last year for Monviso, but there were already a collaboration with Ghia in that year...

The front of car #1 - Monviso Fiat 1100 Stella Filante
Title: Re: MPC#045 (2)

was it the monviso fiat  1100 cabriolet,racy star next to the stella filante monviso?

Post by: Iluvatar on January 28, 2014, 11:24:02 AM

I'm not sure to understand what you mean... "racy star" means "stella filante" if Google translator is correct... so do you mean there is a Stella Filante cabriolet next to the Stella Filante showed in the first picture?
Can you prove it in some way??
Title: Re: MPC#045 (2)

Could the next car be a Fiat 1900 A Cabriolet by Ghia, also at the 1954 Turin show ?

That's quite a strange question... I think you have not understood how the puzzle works... maybe with a little drawing...
Title: Re: MPC#045 (2)
Post by: Iluvatar on January 31, 2014, 08:24:51 AM
So... possible replies to this puzzle can be...
"the car on the right of the Stella Filante is a .............."
"the dark coupé in the first picture can be a ..........." (but for this one I need at least a picture of the car which fit the car in the picture to confirm your identification...)
"the cabriolet in the background of the first picture is a ............... because .............. "
"I have found another picture (attached) with the Stella Filante and I see there is a ......... behind it"...
Ok??  ;)

Nevertheless you are indeed on a right track... but what it's missing it's the link between this car and the Stella Filante... were they close? If so... can you in some way prove it?
Title: Re: MPC#045 (2)
Post by: mekubb on January 31, 2014, 01:44:00 PM
I believe that the convertible at the top of the photo is the Fiat 1900 A cabriolet by Ghia. The connection might be that Monviso was bought by Ghia in 1955.

Yes! You are indeed right, the cabriolet in the background of the first picture is the same car of the picture you posted and it's the Ghia Fiat 1900A cabriolet.
Ghia and Monviso stands were close because there was already a connection between the two coachbuilders.
Title: Re: MPC#045 (2)
Post by: Iluvatar on February 01, 2014, 06:38:21 AM
Now you can go on with a car near to this last one (the only one you have found)... and remember...
- When you identify a car you have to wait until someone else find another car before posting your next guess.
- You have to prove your guess, because I'm not aware of all the car of this motor show... ;)

You can also try to guess a car near to a car found by someone else... but in this case you'll recieve -1 points if the guess is wrong!
This last rule does not apply if there are no free cars near to the cars you have previously identified.

Assuming the picture posted by Joao actually shows in the red circle the Alfa Romeo Ghia, I think the car before it is a Fiat 1900 berlina.

I'm sorry to say that you lost one point... according to the following rule:
You can also try to guess a car near to a car found by someone else... but in this case you'll recieve -1 points if the guess is wrong!
The car is not near to a car you have identify (it's only near to the Chrysler Special found by Joćo), it's not a regular 1100/103 (so the guess is wrong), and even doesn't looks like a regular 1100/103... that front grille was never fitted on regular 1100/103...

A very exciting puzzle! Still staying on the wide-angle shot, I think I can make out a Fiat 1900 A Grand Vue, standing diagonally in front of the Abarth-Alfa and behind the Fiat spotted by Targhediferro, the three cars forming something of a triangle.

As Ehhxect has given another answer I suppose I'm allowed to post another guess, but I apologize if I shouldn't.
The car on the left of the picture showing the Fiat 1900A,  (I could say the car you'd have on your right being at the wheel of the 1900A) is a Lancia Aurelia B12.

A very exciting puzzle! Still staying on the wide-angle shot, I think I can make out a Fiat 1900 A Grand Vue, standing diagonally in front of the Abarth-Alfa and behind the Fiat spotted by Targhediferro, the three cars forming something of a triangle.
And Fiat 1900A GranLuce is correct too!

I suppose that this Fiat 1100 /103 in the background of Ghia Stand is a 1100/103 "quotidiana" by Ghia, as the ones pictured in this photos.
The black and white picture car is for sure a Ghia (the TV version) because I made a research at ACI, but I actually have not yet discovered why it has no gutter profile!

I though that the 1100 Monviso cabriolet and the coupč one were side by side, but watching with more attention the foreground of the big picture with Lancia's stand, I understand that on the left side of the Monviso coupč (on the right for us watchin), there is another car with a different grill.   As that car is for sure in Monviso stand, I think it must be a 1100 familiare Monviso;  the grill looks the same.
If I understood the rules correctly, as the Monviso coupč was identified by me, if me guess is wrong I will not lose any point, or not?

According to a period report, there were three Ferraris on display at the show, and one of them was a Pinin Farina 250 Europa Coupé. In the picture below it can be spotted on the left of the trio. And the link: the dark car standing on the revolving stage of the Lancia stand appears to be the Aurelia B12 listed as #11.

The only name I found is Special, so Bertone Spider Special (on Fiat 1100/103 Tv or Stanguellini 1100, but I suppose the Turin car was a Fiat). I can add that the code number of these Bertone car was 57xx, 2 spider and 9 coupes were built from 1953 to 1956.

The only name I found is Special, so Bertone Spider Special (on Fiat 1100/103 Tv or Stanguellini 1100, but I suppose the Turin car was a Fiat). I can add that the code number of these Bertone car was 57xx, 2 spider and 9 coupes were built from 1953 to 1956.
It had a specific name... it's in english... (if this can help you...)

but don't worry... I already consider this car asfound by you... but you have to give me the full name before going on

I think that the little spider we can see at the left of the Alfa Romeo 1900 Bat 7, is the Spider Bertone (built both on Fiat 1100/103 Tv base and on Stanguellini 1100 base).
Can you give me the specific name of this version? "Xxxxxxx"

Please, unlock and if someone knows this name, give him the point.
I prefer to go otherwhere: behind the Monviso Stella Filante, I think we find a Touring Alfa Romeo 1900 Super Sprint.

So the missing part of the name is a five-letter Italian adjective, like, say, "Bella" – is that correct?
Not exactly an adjective... but the structure of the word is almost the same... (consonat-vocal-double consonat-vocal...)  ;)
Thanks for the clues, you are really generous... Could the name be Tutta Luce, then?

According to a period report, there were three Ferraris on display at the show, and one of them was a Pinin Farina 250 Europa Coupé. In the picture below it can be spotted on the left of the trio. And the link: the dark car standing on the revolving stage of the Lancia stand appears to be the Aurelia B12 listed as #11.

There“s another Lancia B20GT at the same place.

My next step is based on the map. Car #50, the Ermini coupé identified by SACO, seems to have been placed next to a corridor separating the Lombardi / Frua sector from the one situated in the south-east (upper right) corner of the hall. I think I found a picture of that area; if my deduction is correct, the car I highlighted – a Moretti 1200 Gran Turismo? – was standing not too far away from the Ermini.

Period sources mention that Siata exhibited also the small, rear-engined Mitzi at the show. Although not actually visible, I think it might be there somewhere in the background, hidden by visitors, not far from the 208 spyder.
Although I have no picture to confirm it the position should be correct...

Just to add that the label on the rear of this fantastic car says " Guglielmo Dei Roma", the roman dealer who committed this car to Pininfarina; its a two tone light blue, it has a lower roof than the other two Pininfarinas A6G54 2000. It now belongs to a friend of mine and I had the pleasure to enjoy a ride on it as passanger some times ago! Absolutely a great car.

Back to the Moretti / Siata stand for a moment... There was also another nice and exotic Italian sports car there: the Giaur San Remo was a joint effort of Giannini (engine), Urania (chassis), and Motto (body). Going by the pictures below, I suppose it was parking not far away from the Moretti pullman.

Chassis #0155 : According to the same source : Berlineta ENASA; so ...not a Touring body.
Chassis #0150 : Berlineta Touring, Concorso d“Eleganza San Remo, april 1954. (probably the other car) First owner : José Marķa Caralt. Color : silver with blue interior.

I took it from granted that you ID the dark one. I looked for a light Touring that could be the one next to it. According to a well documented source:
#0150 was in Italy in that period, as Joao wrote. The colour was silver and here's a pic (from 1955).
#0154, the one already ID is not the light one. Here's a pic.
#0155. According to the same source was on display in Turin, but the color doesn't match: "inicialmente de color rojo-blanco, y posteriormente de color beige"

I can't see the problem... I knew there was already a Pegaso, the dark one (as you can see from Joao's pic)...in my pic there are two: Joao's and a new one. Wendax, you probably forgot Joao's guess but if there were no Pegaso already solved, in my picture you would have seen just one of them  ;D (I would have kept the other for a future point!).
Please tell me if I'm still missing something...(this period it may well be  ^-^...)

In fact the picture where Joao had found the first Pegaso (Reply 78 on page 4) showed the dark car, and not the light one... so I misplaced car #21...
I'll correct the map...   ;)

Among the 1954 Le Mans entries there was a small, featherweight Nardi sports racer, fitted with a streamlined barchetta body by Motto and a 750cc Crosley engine. This car is reported to have been on display at the Turin show before; although not visible in the picture, it must have been there somewhere, close to the #54 Moretti.

Don't worry PJ...

SACO lost one point for guessing a car which is not near to an already identified car... because it's not #8 Ghia Chrysler...
So also the next guesses from SACO cannot be considered...

Next to the Giaur 750 should be a Moretti 750 Alger Le Cap Berlina:

This is correct...

And another Moretti 750 Alger Le Cap:

But as I don't consider SACO's posts you are not allowed to have another guess... so I don't consider this one too...


Note that your guess are not wrong... so you have given a big help to other puzzler... maybe next time you'll wait my reply...

You are really close... the only problem is that the 1900 is not "near" the Bentley... there's something else in between...
but the 1900 is near another car already identified... locked for you to find out what it is...

Maybe the cars were not in the same place for the entire duration of the show... but if you look at this picture the car on the right of the Bentley is black and it should be the Lancia PF200.
The car between the 1900 and the Bentley is white so it's not the Lancia PF200...
But from other pictures I have the white car is on the left of the 1900, like in your last post...

I think that the picture you posted with the white car between Bentley and Alfa 1900 was shooted when the cars were not in the final position.
This is not strange, I have some picture with cars moved from their final place just to have a better view to shoot photos...
The correct disposition is the one in your reply #307 (http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=27246.msg320600#msg320600)

When you correctly identify you can go ahead with a new car, but near to one of the cars you have found.
You'll recieve +1 points for every correct and complete guess.

You can also try to guess a car near to a car found by someone else... but in this case you'll recieve -1 points if the guess is wrong!
You can try also with cars not near to one found by yuorself, but if your guess is wrong you lose a point...

OK, here is my try. Let’s take the map again: next to the little Nardi barchetta there is a car that we hadn’t identified yet. What can that be? Possibly another one of the etceterini; a small manufacturer that, like Nardi, brought only a single car to the show. In a magazine article I read that Stanguellini presented in Turin their twin cam 750cc engine fitted in an open body of some sort. So my guess: the car in question is a Stanguellini 750 Bialbero. The problem is that I haven't ever seen a picture of it; I’m actually not even sure if it had a sports car body or was an open wheel formula racer...

Yes! Great! The car is a Stanguellini 750 Sport bialbero, with a transparent bonnet that show the engine.
I have only these two pictures of the car... but it could be the one in the color photo.

Are we sure it's a MB 300 and not a MB 220? I have this doubt because of the roof shape, the top of the windscreen is more curved than 300's one, in my opinion. I asked to Paul Jaray why he decided for 300, and he told me that it depends on the split front bumper. Does anyone have a final word about it?
Title: Re: MPC#045 - 1954 Turin Motor Show
Post by: Wendax on June 10, 2014, 02:23:21 AM
I'd opt for the 220, because the 300 always had chrome A-pillars. Furthermore, on a picture of this quality you can't tell the difference between split bumpers and a single bumper optically divided by a plate. For comparison I'll attach a picture of the brand new 220 at Geneva in March, 1954.

I should say that I'm not an expert in old (nor new) Mercedes... so I guess it should have been correct... but now I see there could be indeed a 220... because of the A-pillar, which looks chromed on the 300 and looks dark in the Turin pic...

I've been a lot on that pic before I made my decision.

I don't have a picture from Turin 1954, but for comparison see the attached picture. The dark roof on the light body proves it to be a convertible, the length of the roof rules out the Cabriolet A, the curved front wing makes it a 220 and not a 300.

You may be indeed right... but the picture is too bad for a proper identification, and I have no other info about it...

Back to the Moretti / Siata stand for a moment... There was also another nice and exotic Italian sports car there: the Giaur San Remo was a joint effort of Giannini (engine), Urania (chassis), and Motto (body). Going by the pictures below, I suppose it was parking not far away from the Moretti pullman.

Yes, the picture is in post #221, but it's there only to identify the correct car type seen in the previous picture of the same post (and in post #220), it's from 1953.

This is correct, I didn't notice that...

Now we have a problem I already noticed during the research for this puzzle.
At that time the cars in the show were not the same everytime.
During the motor show some cars changed... and they are not the same in all the pictures...

But according to the picture you posted there were a 1100 Zagato near the other 1100... so I add the double car in the same "slot" (car#59) and you recieve one more point!

This is a picture from 1953 Turin Motor Show, you can identify the year by looking at the two american cars, the Mercury and the Lincoln Capri, both are model year 1953.

The stands are almost in the same place... but if you look at my picture (reply#419) you can see the Siata stand in a different position, the Siata banner is just above the Volkswagen banner (so it's around the left of Alfa Romeo)... and in 1954 Siata was near Zagato and Moretti, in another position!

According with it's position it should be the same car we can see the open boot in the picture of Lancia's stand (#68, on the left, under the yellow circle) and it hasn't been recognised yet.

Watching the picture of Simca stand in answer 436, in the background between the two Arondes, I suppose we can see another Lancia Aurelia B12. According with it's position it should be the same car we can see the open boot in the picture of Lancia's stand (#68, on the left, under the yellow circle) and it hasn't been recognised yet.
Correct!

The one you pointed out is the 1100 "Quotidiana" already found by targhediferro (#19)

So it seems that between this De Luxe with open roof and the Quotidiana #19, there is another 1100 Quotidiana.

Although I'm not 100% sure about it, it could be correct, so I consider it solved too.

According to my source, there were two 1100 DeLuxe by Ghia. One with sunroof, color : grigio piombo e celeste. This is the first one beside the Tutta Luce.

Next car : There is another 1900SS by Touring (black car) beside the light colored one, Touring stand.

What about this puzzle? I'ts time to think about it...

Dear friends... you are working so hard to solve this puzzle... but does it still worth to be a real puzzle?
I mean, now we have only targhediferro and Joćo still in the race... and they should be awarded with more then 25 points!! Maybe it's time to stop the points?
I'm not saying the puzzle should die, but the competition between puzzlers is over, because one have to wait the other before posting another guess... the research is interesting, but maybe should be done in another way, with an open thread and no points...

Please let me know what you think about it!

If you agree I will award all the points and move this puzzle (where should I move it? Solved? Or better to Features, Stories and Photos?).

Title: Re: MPC#045 - 1954 Turin Motor Show
Post by: Wendax on November 08, 2014, 10:56:05 AM
I agree. I guess targhediferro and Joao have valuable sources unavailable to the others.  ;)
Like most of the other puzzlers I just have the information available online, which is mostly exhausted. 25 points is a nice score, and it is about the maximum amount of points awarded in group puzzles to a single puzzler so far, I think. I don't think a single puzzle should be worth much more points, no matter how large it is.
The idea to carry on this puzzle without points is interesting. It would be challenging to reconstruct the whole exposition just by picture sources. But, as mentioned before, I am mainly out of the race. Great puzzle, though.
Title: Re: MPC#045 - 1954 Turin Motor Show
Post by: targhediferro on November 08, 2014, 11:37:12 AM
I agree as well...I think 25 points are even too many.  I have got an interesting source (perhaps not so detailed as Joao one), it's a sport magazine from 1954 with some pictures of the Turin Show (unluckily the same ones you can find on the net) but it also includes a plan of the Salon in which are specified the names of the Marques of each stands, and this is undoubtly usefull.  I've no list of the cars present at the show.
Anyway, I would be glad to continue this addictive quiz and to discover all the cars from Turin '54 show, even if it will be a pointless quiz.

Second that my friends, there“s no problem about it. I“m not here for the points. My source is a 1954 Auto Italiana magazine, that covers the show. There are a couple more sources but not as good as this one. Waiting was the hardest part. It“s your call Iluvatar.  :)

Let“s do it! It“s addictive and I would like to see a nice detailed exposition!

All right!
Now the puzzle is an open topic about the 1954 Turin Motor Show and the cars showed in that exhibition. Feel free to add any contribution you like to create a comprehensive review of that show.
I'll post soon something I have found. And maybe I'll do soon a review of all we have until now, to start again...
Now I add all the points.
Congratulation for all your contribution, past and future!

PS-I have both Motor Italia and Auto Italiana as my sources...  ;)

Near Vignale“s stand, behind the first row, Panther stand, I believe. Beside him you can see the Giardinetta Elaborata by Vignale. There were 9! Giardinettas by Viotti btw.

Why did I always ignore this puzzle...

Nothing has happened here for a long time.


I think the Mercedes 300 S Convertible has been identified before.

So here is a view over the 1954 Turin show Porsche stand.

So, my new guesses which can be seen below are:

Ford 12M from Germany

Ford Consul from the UK

Ford Crestline Fordor Sedan

Porsche 356 Coupé

Porsche 550 Spyder

Tempo Wiking Bus

Tempo Matador Bus

Mercury 4dr Sedan or 2dr Coupé (hard to tell)

Lincoln Capri (Coupé) I guess.

The low white coupé in between the Mercury and the Lincoln I do not know...

As I do not care about points, I show two photos of other stand far off.

I found a photo of stand #637 "Orlandi R."

Two busses can be clearly identified there.

In the foreground an OM Leoncino and in the background a Fiat 682 bus, both with Orlandi bodywork.

And I also found a photo of the Garavini stand #632

This should be a Fiat (1400?) based Garavini Ambulance...

My last for today - the Kaiser Frazer stand.

In the foreground a Henry J

behind it a Chevrolet Bel Air or Delray

Judging the ground floor plan, the mentioned Oldsmobile seems to be missing or GM changed the car placement?

In the right background you can see the Autotutto bus at the Alfa Romeo stand, which has already been identified before.
