Here is what I have for the ten Tipo 375 cars built. In this case, I prefer "build numbers" to chassis numbers... 1950: Build No 1:...
Ferrari was not a tiny company. Even in 1945, it employed circa 160 people...
At least one of them had been Alberto Ascari's factory entered car ar Indianapolis in 1952. Numbered as No. 1, I believe. After that abortive...
It seems that Whitehead traded in 500/3, which became 0482 in late 1955/early 1956 for a Tipo 555 Super Squalo, so time wise, 0482 going to...
Agreed BUT I checked the dates of Whitehead's races in Australia, and Gonzalez first appearances with 0482 in South America. They all check out,...
I'm trying to chase down the history of chassis number 0482, the Ferrari fitted with a Corvette engine that Jose Froilan Gonzalez drove in South...
Yes. The first "No.2" of 1950 only ever ran a 12-plug engine, whilst the "No.2" of 1951 started life with a 24-plug engine. As well, the "No 2"...
Jose-Froilan Gonzalez' World Championship winner of the 1951 British Grand Prix was built in 1950. What I refer to as GP/375-2. It only ever ran...
From my experience of collaborating with Allan Morris over almost three years, sometimes daily, I can only say that he is correct.
Apologies. I miscounted! Perfetti's 375 was Number 6, built in 1951, re-numbered for the Italian GP of 1951 as number 2, not number 1.
Was Number 6, then number 1. I am told that it has engine number 6. Incidentally, Doug Nye, on TNF, wrote some time ago that he has a photo of...
Not as far as I know. but Ferrari sold the cars, numbered as number 1 and 2, (Built as No.5 and 6), to Rosier and Landi after the end of the 1951...
Not just Italian teams. The factory entered Porsche 917s are a case in point. Chassis numbers were altered to suit carnets.... It's well...
This car is, from the last that I read, the "long chassis" 013F.
Miura SV: "Miura SV: Yes, 1951 375 F1 #5 was numbered as #1 for the Italian Grand Prix of that year. 1951 375 F1 #6 was numbered as #2 for that...
Piloti: Thank you so much. I did try to persuade the publisher that adding the database would add to sales but sadly failed!
Piloti, Sempre_Gilles: I agree with both of you but the Publisher calls the tune....
Thank you Allan! Piloti: I have a complete database on these pre-1953 cars that I have kept for over 30 years. The book size: The Publisher...
