Modelmartin Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 (edited) Why Zeb, everyone knows that that is a Biddle with a Rochester-Duesenberg motor! Early to mid-20s? And a schoolbus yellow GP car with a #5 on it? Should be a Mclaren but I am not a F1 eggspurt! M7A?

Guest zebm1 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Tha yellow racercar is in fact a 1967 Mclaren M7A.....which for anyone who has bought a Heller or Union M7A....nope those are kits of a one-off M7B. A design exercise to try out tha saddle tanks and chassis in preparation for a 4 whl drive F1. McLaren sold tha M7B because it waz a dawg......same year they built it. Now tha Red Limo, nope and it's for shore NOT a Belchfire nor a Blofeld Blofart....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elbonian Cuisine . . .DO NOT go in there! THAT is funny! Ok, Zeb, you need to slow down, let's do this orderly, we know have your two, with Chris's and now Andy's, along with MY SILVER F1 car. so NO MORE PICS till we fugger out these ones. And thanks Andy for trying to guess the Mclaren but that was a picture Zeb posted to see if he got mine right......which he didn't.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modelmartin Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Zeb and Gregg you are incorrect! Gregg has the nation of manufacturer correct. I am so very disappointed that Biddle was not correct for Zeb's red touring car. It is not a limo, Zeb. You might need to brush up on your coachwork nomenclature. They have an almost identical radiator shell and are the right era. grrrrrrr. I don't know if anyone else out there can get it. You might just have to spill it out!

Guest zebm1 Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Tha red Touring car was actually a pretty economical ride, I'll narrow it down for yall a bit......between 1910-1920. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biscuitbuilder Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 (edited) When yall find out what that Touring car is...yall will FLIP OUT! Where's Art, wanna see ifn I can stump tha EGGSPERT too. Zeb, that could be any one of a number of "teens brass era cars", given that a number of smaller automakers used similar honeycomb V-radiators in those years. I have no idea, given the look of that car, and its similarity to many others of the age (bear in mind, there were several hundred carmakers in the US alone in that decade, most were small, tended to be very regional in market) I suspect you wouldn't know either, had you not found the picture online, captioned?

Guest zebm1 Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Hiya Art, this automaker was rather well known...... well yall, including Nick, have yall given up yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
