Nick F40 Posted May 13, 2008 Author Posted May 13, 2008 DALE!!!! welcome back haven't seen you in a while! How ya doin? You are right on the Crusader and that other one is tricky. I know i'm probably wrong but it looks Cunninghamish.
george 53 Posted May 13, 2008 Posted May 13, 2008 Thanks to my recent geography lesson I now know that it's a Ozzi Ford ute of some sort. the tail gate says XR6 and there's the blue oval and the plate says "victoria,the place to be"So it's an Ozzi Ford xr6 ute.Pretty good huh?

Yeah, I been trying to decipher the badge, too. I kind of thought it might have been a Lotus also, but nope.
Guest zebm1 Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 Noticed that some have put some RACING CARS up......soooo, tell me what these were before they became racecars..... Now we'll see who's tha sharpest CRAYON in tha box...... BTW, these guys only race inline sixes.......they use stock frame rails and tubing in their frames structures.......
Nick F40 Posted May 14, 2008 Author Posted May 14, 2008 The second one DEFINETLY looks like a Plymouth/Dodge, so does the first. Not sure on the Race name, they look like Dirt cars to me. Oh and someone on this other forum I go to got it, want a clue?
samdiego Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 (edited) I would guess that they were raw sheetmetal and fiberglass. Or did they actually start as the pre-war cars that they appear to be? And what the hell is that red british car? I'm usually pretty good with those (father's influence) but this one is just making me mad. I should be able to peg it, but I can't. I'm jumping the gun here, or maybe not since I stumped you guys, but I've been dyin' to post this one. Extra credit for driver ID. Edited May 14, 2008 by samdiego

Looks like an ACE derivative.
samdiego Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 (edited) Yup, that's Kate, but it's not a British Bantam and it's not a '34 Edited May 15, 2008 by samdiego
Guest zebm1 Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 (edited) 1st is a 1929 Chrysler Coupe 2nd is a 1933 Dodge Coach, What's tha 3rd car.... and they are pavement racers....... Kate's car looks like a postwar Fiat, using parts left over from pre-war..... and that look's like tha Eyetalian Rivera...... oh and is that red roadster a brit Bristol? Edited May 15, 2008 by zebm1

CAL Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 I don't Think it's a Morgan, it looks more like a TD. Try this on for size.

CAL Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 (edited) samdiego said: it's neither a Morgan nor an MG. Different angle Sure looks like a TD. Now there was a Caribbean company that built British cars IIRC. Edited May 15, 2008 by CAL
fordsixty Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 Try this on for size. a one off kit car an a triunph spitfire chassis. nobody is close on the red roadster, hint: only 6 made. powered by ubiquitous 1100 coventry-climax.
