Who can tell me what we’re the cars with these numbers in this race: 48, 1964 Porsche 904 42, Year?, Model? 74, Year? Lister Knobby? but the front looks different. Thanks
I think 74 is a 1959 Lister modified for the Jaguar D Type engine. Still not sure of 42. Here is a photo. Image Unavailable, Please Login
I’m almost certain 74 is a Maserati Birdcage tipo 61. I think 42 is a Ferrari, although not sure what type, maybe 196SP.
Jack, thank you for the huge assistance in identifying the cars. After a 30 year hiatus, I’ve begun to draw again and decided to make a pen and ink of this scene. It will challenge my amateur skills and needed to find more reference photos of the cars. Image Unavailable, Please Login A great deal of work yet to do.
Agree 74 looks to be a Birdcage; and I'm pretty sure 42 is a Ferrari 246SP/196SP 0790 built in 1961 which finished 4th in this race, the GP Campagnano, Vallelunga driven by Leandro Terra.
This is the only Lister Maserati ever built according to the Bonham’s auction catalogue. Image Unavailable, Please Login
