some sort of replica 300 slr of Stirling Moss?

Djetset · December 05, 2011, 02:34:23 AM

Yes, it is inspired by the Moss Mercedes-Benz SLR. Do you have any more information?

Djetset · December 14, 2011, 04:12:30 PM

Do the Experts know more?

hugo90 · December 15, 2011, 12:57:00 AM

Is it from Lorenz and Rankl?

Djetset · December 15, 2011, 03:07:41 PM

Sorry, but not the work of Lorenz and Rankl.

Proteus?

Djetset · December 15, 2011, 06:13:38 PM

Not Proteus.

On the move again...

Based on a 300 SL?

Djetset · December 29, 2011, 06:33:25 AM

It uses Mercedes-Benz mechanicals, but not necessarily that of a 300 SL.

From South America?

Djetset · December 29, 2011, 06:35:19 AM

Not South American.

300 slr by rcc (rare car creations)?

Wendax · December 31, 2011, 06:05:12 AM

I think this one is French, because the picture was taken at the Epoqu'Auto this November in Lyon, somewhere in Hall 1 between "Thierry Automobile" (location LO 4/5) and Labocuir (location RQ 4/5), but even looking through the list of participating companies didn't help me much. :(

Julien1A · December 31, 2011, 06:13:04 AM

Pictured in epoqu'auto 2011 in Lyon... but have not much information on it...

art techniques automobiles ?

Julien1A · December 31, 2011, 06:52:16 AM

ah ah Wendax I was doing the same thing...as I also saw that it was in epoqu'auto

Thierry Automobiles in Bron seems to be a good candidate (referenced as mercedes expert in few websites)! or art techniques automobiles... but internet do not bring much information on them.

...however some picture in flickr shows english comments... so maybe alternatives cars...

You would make very good detectives Wendax and Julien, as I did take this photo at the 2011 Epoqu'Auto in Lyon. Where you both there too?

Anyway, although Wendax mentioned that this was somewhere near the Thierry Automobile stand, Julien gets the point for correctly identifying that they built the car. It is Mercedes-based, although a Corvette powertrain can also be used. More details are on their website.

Thank you for appreciating our sleuthing qualities. I've only been once in Lyon last September for a few hours, but have never been to Epoqu'Auto. ;D
