Rona!d Posted March 15, 2011 Share #821 Posted March 15, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) Ronald, something about this reminds me of a late fifties, VW/Porsche very limited production car built in Switzerland. Am I on the right track? So name the maker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Hi Rona!d, Take a look here Name this car..... I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
luigi bertolotti Posted March 15, 2011 Share #822 Posted March 15, 2011 (edited) Beutler - Porsche from Suisse ? If right, do not deserve the prize ... did not know the name... Google help (and anyway haven't pics to post) but... I noticed a reflected "CH" in the first picture... and finally found : http://www.wolfsburg-citytour.de/wolfsburg-tourist/Zeithaus_1/Porsche-Beutler/porsche-beutler.html Edited March 15, 2011 by luigi bertolotti Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rona!d Posted March 15, 2011 Share #823 Posted March 15, 2011 (edited) Yes, this is a Beutler-Porsche-VW (parts from all three brands mixed up). Luigi for your Sherlock Holmes work I left some hints of Switzerland in the bumper reflection, that´s why I asked you to go on In case Luigi has no pictures like he mentioned before, I´d suggest, it´s John´s turn now!

J_Thompson Posted March 16, 2011 Share #824 Posted March 16, 2011 Thanks, Ronald, but in all fairness the win belongs to Luigi as he got the maker correct. My guess was only one of elimination based upon a vague recollection from over 50 years ago. Besides, he must have more of his fabulous Brescia Mille photos to share!

luigi bertolotti Posted March 16, 2011 Share #827 Posted March 16, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) Thanks, Ronald, but in all fairness the win belongs to Luigi as he got the maker correct. My guess was only one of elimination based upon a vague recollection from over 50 years ago. Besides, he must have more of his fabulous Brescia Mille photos to share! Fairness for fairness... without Google I NEVER should have found the name "Beutler"... all I did was to follow the "Swiss patch" and the "Porsche patch" .... Google did the rest . And, as I said, I haven't car pictures to post... at least not quick to be : I know is someway incredible for a person of Brescia... but I haven't so many pics of Mille Miglia : btw, the most with auto details (taken before the start, in Piazza Vittoria) have been made at film times (unscanned)... recently I took some "action" pics which aren't so apt to be "cut" for this fun game. So John... up to you !!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_Thompson Posted March 16, 2011 Share #828 Posted March 16, 2011 Gentlemen, I'm afraid that I am going to have to take a pass on this next submission as annoying internet connectivity "gremlins" have currently made my computer less than reliable. My sincere apologies to all concerned, but maybe someone else can carry on in my stead. It would be greatly appreciated. Again, my apologies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuny Posted March 22, 2011 Share #838 Posted March 22, 2011 I'll start it with late '50s, rear engine, C class racing automobile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmo Posted March 23, 2011 Share #839 Posted March 23, 2011 Stuart, Late 40's to early 50's, front engine. Regards Gerd Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted March 23, 2011 Share #840 Posted March 23, 2011 By chance is it based on a road car, with a special envelope body over the frame and modified engine? The wire wheel makes me think of those used on English sportscars of the era. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
