This particular one is quite special!

Quiller · September 28, 2008, 04:18:32 PM

Gazela !

@re · September 28, 2008, 06:47:38 PM

The point is yours. But first: Gazela what?

Quiller · September 30, 2008, 11:48:46 AM

Gazela 2001 of 1974 - is that right $:-\$

@re · September 30, 2008, 06:46:18 PM

It is as absolutely 100% right as it can possibly be.

Two more pics, as I think it's a very interesting car.

Made in 1974, it consisted of Porsche chassis, BMW Alpina 2002 Tii engine and modified Skoda 130R body. Gearbox was from Tatra, later replaced with a Hewland one from Audi. The car was used for hillclimbing and circuit racing.

That must be a.. but.. or is it.. at all?

For one point, please respond and identify this car, its base, its engine and the year.

Allemano · April 05, 2011, 05:06:00 AM

I'm pretty sure we had it before...

That's a Skoda Gazela from 1974....however it was only a Skoda in part....Porsche running gear, BMW 2002 engine and a highly modified Skoda 130R bodyshell

See a post above that post. Pelland subsequently identified it as well. Not sure if that is thanks to the link or not.

Oooooooooooops!! Didn't see the other posts. I knew the car straight away and just hit the quote button.....have checked the link...its got to be a repost

Wendax · April 05, 2011, 12:19:35 PM

Yes, I didn't see DeAutogids' first post either. Probably it came in while I was answering the first reply.

BTW, stupid me was searching "Gazelle" instead of "Gazela" when checking for a repost.

Pelland, in dubio pro reo. That is, I will give you the point without discussing the role of DeAutogids' post.

Could someone please merge?

For the record, the car is also known as Gazela B5.

Allemano · April 05, 2011, 12:24:36 PM

Merged.

Wendax · February 16, 2014, 12:03:08 PM

... and on the front bumper it once said BMW 2002 TIG:
