Ready, steady, ...

For one point, please respond and identify the man, the boy and (the easy part) what real car served as a paragon for this pedal car.

Well, the pedal car is based on a Maserati
So the man is probably Italian - Luigi Villoresi? And his son?

The more you learn, the more you realise how little you know.

You are right about the pedal car resembling a Maserati and the boy being the son of the man, but that's hardly surprising. Unfortunately, the man isn't Luigi Villoresi.

barrett

One of the Maserati brothers?

Wendax

Sorry, the only Maserati on the picture is the pedal car  :)

Yes, correct. Another point for you.

Bad luck, Allemano, this is the land of complete answers. But I am amazed you recognized the boy and not the father  ;)

Nice that you reminded me otherwise I wouldn't have known..   :censored:

Sorry Allemano, it was touch and go to get my answer in before you replied again.
I should add the pedal car was built by the Stanguellini works to resemble a Maserati single seater.
