You think you know them all?
1 point for each correct ID.
1 point for the bonus car.

Paul Jaray · September 30, 2009, 06:16:36 AM

Be quick, I'll move this to the expert, very soon!

als15 · September 30, 2009, 09:39:16 AM

Give at least one evening...
The wide part seems to be based on a Fiat Topolino, so it is my stuff.

Just from my desk, without using any book support and only my memory, I try with #2: is it a Marinella Testadoro by Casa dell'Auto?

als15 · September 30, 2009, 09:42:57 AM

#6: a Fiat 1100-based sport made by Antimo Minutolo?

Paul Jaray · September 30, 2009, 10:55:40 AM

Wow, you just picked up one of the hardest ones!
#6 - Minutolo Fiat 1100 Sport als15
We already had the Testadoro:

but it's not here.

als15 · September 30, 2009, 12:52:02 PM

Of course the Testadoro is smaller... This is a sport made in 1949 by Officine Elettromeccaniche Vincenzo Leone in Turin, Fiat 1100 engine and tubular chassis derived by Cisitalia, whose development ing. Leone contributed in the previous years.

How is the rule for the bonus? Can I answer or have to wait until all are cleared?

Paul Jaray · September 30, 2009, 01:21:07 PM

#2 is correct!
I consider it a bonus since I think it will be quite easy.
You can guess it freely.

als15 · September 30, 2009, 01:30:49 PM

Ok. So it's the CFM 750, made in Mestre (near Venice) in 1949 using a war-scrap VW Kubelwagen engine with reduced displacement.

Paul Jaray · September 30, 2009, 02:01:15 PM

#2 - Leone Fiat 1100 Sport als15
#6 - Minutolo Fiat 1100 Sport als15
Bonus- CFM 750 Sport als15

The CFM was not easy, but it is featured in the cover of a well known book, 'La Sport e i suoi Artigiani', that's why it was less obscure.

als15 · September 30, 2009, 06:36:20 PM

And this is indeed the reason why I know it even if it isn't Fiat-based.

So it seems I've got three more points...

Paul Jaray · September 30, 2009, 06:44:22 PM

You have, but the group puzzles ...get paid...at the end!

Paul Jaray · October 01, 2009, 04:09:00 AM

So No5 is locked. I hope not the whole topic is locked!

Nardi-Danese 750 BMW?

Carnut · October 01, 2009, 05:57:01 AM

And don't forget my identification of #1 as a Fortunati Sport 1950!
I was busy editing my post whilst pnegyesi was posting so unfortunately I seem to have missed out on the others!

Paul Jaray · October 01, 2009, 06:46:02 AM

these cars are racing again!
I have to check the time of your replies (and the edited versions) to understand who found what!
Tell me if I go wrong:
#1 - Fortunati Sport 1950 Carnut (how did you get this!!)
#2 - Leone Fiat 1100 Sport    als15
#5 - Nardi-Danese Baby Sport 750       Carnut
#6 - Minutolo Fiat 1100 Sport    als15
#9 - Ortolani 750 Sport 1949 pnegyesi

Gentlemen, you are amazing. Carnut and Pnegyesi found #8 at few seconds (16!) one from the other. I'm sure tha both of them knew it and Pnegyesi (who arrived 2nd) deserves another canche: this car was indeed made by Vendrame on a Fiat-base, but the engine is missing and most important, the person the car is named after!

#7 not a Stanga
#8 Locked for Carnut and Pnegyesi

pnegyesi · October 01, 2009, 08:38:49 AM

Vendrame: Tullio Vendrame who worked in Mareno di Piave (Treviso) Basis is a Fiat 500A bored out to 626 cc

Paul Jaray · October 01, 2009, 08:51:49 AM

Vendrame is correct, but he made the bodywork for the cars prepared by another man. I'm looking for his name.
(One of his cars run the original Mille Miglia in the 50s)

Paul Jaray · October 01, 2009, 08:58:36 AM

OK, I made a quick research and it seems that this one is indeed a car with bodywork by Vendrame and prepared by himself.
I thought it was one of the cars that he dressed for Zanussi, but it's not one of those.
Sorry about that. $:-\$

#1 - Fortunati Sport 1950 Carnut (how did you get this!!)
#2 - Leone Fiat 1100 Sport als15
#5 - Nardi-Danese Baby Sport 750       Carnut

#8 - Vendrame fiat 500a sport 1938    Carnut & pnegyesi
#9 - Ortolani 750 Sport 1949       pnegyesi

Carnut · October 01, 2009, 09:25:44 AM

Yes, all I could find out about the Vendrame was that it is a "Vendrame Fiat Sport 650"
