1925 Ceirano, I think.

Yes, it is a Ceirano. Locked for you to find the model.

Post by: Craig Gillingham on February 09, 2013, 04:29:12 PM
Probably an S150?
Title: Re: Wendax 796
Post by: Wendax on February 09, 2013, 04:31:29 PM
I have another model designation. Still locked.
Title: Re: Wendax 796
Post by: Craig Gillingham on February 09, 2013, 04:40:44 PM
An N150?
Title: Re: Wendax 796
Post by: Wendax on February 09, 2013, 05:35:32 PM
No. A hint: there is no 150 in the name.

Tipo 50 (Ceiranina)?

No

The only other model I can find is a Type CS. If it isn't that, you could unlock this puzzle.

Yes, it is a CS model. Which one?

It looks like it may have been a competition car at one stage, so I'll try a Type CS24.

CS2?
Title: Re: Wendax 796
Post by: Wendax on February 10, 2013, 08:06:38 AM
No, the other one! The point is near. ;D
Title: Re: Wendax 796
Post by: Craig Gillingham on February 10, 2013, 08:09:32 AM
Has to be a Type CS4 then. This puzzle certainly has increased my knowledge, and appreciation of Ceiranos!

Very interesting picture;  I've noted the french plate and, most of all, the underwriting "Chiribirri Montecarlo" ; Antonio Chiribiri was an italian manufacturer, from Turin too, who built little cars in the same period of Ceirano, and even if I don't know of any joint venture between the two firms, it's quite sure that Giovanni Ceirano and Antonio Chiribiri known each other.  It would be great if we could know that Antonio Chiribiri had a Ceirano and went to Montecarlo with it.

Unfortunately I don't have any further information. I just found the picture online.
