Draggon Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 How about this beast? A 1911 Oldsmobile limited Touring Car. I never would have guessed that red one was anything later thatn 1903-ish.

RadRidesByDan Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 How's about a 1938 Phantom Corsair? Ill have to make them harder
Draggon Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 Ill have to make them harder That steam car and the GT 70 were pretty hard..I gave up several times.
Nick F40 Posted October 7, 2008 Author Posted October 7, 2008 you gave up..bull! "I thought maybe that too, but I don't think it's Lancia. It does look Italian/Ford." I know right?

Draggon Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 you gave up..bull! how HOW?? You get this weird never know ###### right, times already, HOW are you a machine? I spent most of my youth with my nose buried in Car&Driver, Road&Track, etc. so i've usually got a bit of an idea as to where to start However, you guys give some great clues. It took me a LOOOONG time to get the GT70--all I knew was that I remembered the shape. That steam car thingy, well, I needed that Jay Leno clue to get it. And I've got way to much time on my hands.......LOL Now this Porsche will be more difficult!

CAL Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 (edited) 1974 Porsche 911 RSR replica, designed for the Historic Sportscar racind Series and buit by RAE motorsports in Merrimack, NH . Most current rqce was the Rolex 24 at daytona. 3.6 litre twin plug wiht webbers, 380+ hp. For sale in Alaska for $40K. Looks like the First IROC. I guess you can't get much more specific than this though Porsche 911 RSR Replica. RSR Wide Body look. The car was replicated after a 911 RSR to compete in the Historic Sportscar Racing Series (www.hsrace.com) on the East coast. Most of the design and construction was completed out of a shop in Merrimack NH, RAE Motorsports who specialize in Vintage cars, Fabrication & Restoration work. The race car has gone through an extensive year long professional ground up build and has been beautifully engineered with no expense spared. The work was preformed a couple of years ago. As you can see from the pictures the level of fabrication is extremely high. The most current race was at Daytona Internal Speedway (home of the Rolex 24 hour at Daytona). The car is currently set up for the high-banks at Daytona, geared for approximately 160mph. This car has never been wrecked. The vehicle is a complete tube chassis and has not retained the original factory floor pan. The body is completely fiberglass with the exception of the roof (which is original steel). Total weight was slightly under 2000 pounds with engine and Transmission installed and ready to race. The engine and Transaxle are currently out of the car. The engine is fresh and ready to be re-assembled. The transaxle is ready to go. My price includes chassis, transaxle and engine. All the body work is new from GT Racing and so is the paint. The vehicle has a complete on board fire extinguishing system, quick disconnect steering wheel, Kirkey racing seat , six-point seat belts, front and rear master cylinders with balance bar, Auto Meter Pro-Comp Ultra-lite gauges,lots of new steel braded line and a moroso accusump for the high banked tracks. The chassis has been designed around a G50 Transmission with external oil cooler and was mated to a carbureted professionally assembled 3.6 liter twin plug racing motor with all the good stuff (over $20,000 was spent on engine and transmission alone). Well over $70,000 dollars was spent preparing this car and it proved to be Very Quick.
