Solved almost alone by Wendax: Cars and Places – Third Edition

The Jackson Special in its initial guise is car # 14.

Yes, it wasn't that hard anymore.
If you think car#03 is a Jackson Special as well I have to say that it's not congruent with my infos.

Thanks to Wendax almost alone there's not so much left for the Pro's.

Moved to the highest level.

Close, but no cigar!

Car #3 Northland Special

Place # 13 Northland, New Zealand

Car #3 Northland Special

That's it!

[Allemano]

Coincidentally the Northland Special really seems to be the former Jackson Special from NZ.
I didn't know that as I started this puzzle.

The car is the current Northland Special (...) in original form. Built as the Jackson Special by John Mc Millan, winner of the first NZ Grand Prix at Ohakea, then sold to Halsey Logan of the Nelson district. Had chain drive from the back of the gearbox to a side shaft then to a very offset diff. This allowed the very low seating position. Halsey converted it to a conventional axle before selling to George Palmer to become the Palmer Special, and a very long string of other names. Still competing after close on 60 years with over ten meeting average per year!

No4: Crowfoot Glacier, Alberta Canada matches with Car No9 which is a Crowfoot-Holden special

That was a hard one!

[Wendax]

And I was already thinking of checking all the glaciers listed in Wikipedia, if anyone looks like picture #4.

Where are the luminaries for custom-made cars?

[Wendax]

I know what place 8 is, but can't find any connection to the remaining cars

I know what place 8 is, but can't find any connection to the remaining cars

I'm curious about your suggestion..

[Wendax]

Since I'm stuck, I might just as well publicate my knowledge. Place #8 is Marseille, looking at the Archipel du Frioul, consisting of the islands Pomègues, Ratonneau, Tiboulen and Château d'If, where Alexandre Dumas placed the adventures of the Count of Monte Cristo. My guess is that it matches with car #15, but I couldn't find a name for it.

The only connection between Marseille and one of the pictured cars is a bit slippery (when wet):

[Allemano]

All things you've said are correct of course, but still, the name I've been looking for isn't mentioned, yet.

We see something on that pic, quite obvious, but overlooked easily...

[Wendax]

Could it be that car #1 is the Notre Dame University car, that matches with place #8 Notre Dame de la Garde in Marseille?

[Allemano]

No, you already found the right pairing.

You only need to find the right names..

[Wendax]

So it is place #8 and car #15?

[Allemano]

Yes!

[Wendax]

Digue du Berry

[Allemano]

Digue du Berry

No..
It would be easier to look at that "place" from a different angle...

[pnegyesi]

As for the last pair, is place No2 located in Europe?

[Allemano]

Yes.

[Wendax]

Probably British

[Allemano]

British it is..
