    Nice photos:

    1 is still a mystery today. The car was based either on a 6CM- or 6C-34-chassis with a 6-cyl.-streight-six engine but without compressor.

    2 and 3 is the Tipo 26 #1510, today owned by Hans Matti in CH. He found the car in Marocco in a backyard. Its a very original car!

    4 no clue about Bianchi........

    5 yep - Gonzales! But not in a 4CLT - its a A6GCM, the fore-runner of the famous 250F. The chassis-numbers of those early 50ies-cars are puzzeling.

    Ciao!

    ! yep, its Bonetto. He loved pipe-smoking and did that in many races. Even when his car got fire he escaped with his pipe between his teeth.

    2. Yep, its a 2nd series 4CL
    3. never saw this photo! Are you sure that its based on a 4CL?
    4. Yep, Borcacchini in the epic 16-cyl.-car! This car was the monster he drove to speed-word record on the autostrada near Cremona. Only the engine survived unntil 1978 when De Tomaso ordered this historic motor to be scrapped! It was a shame!!

    Ciao!

    Not sure - but it looks like a 4CS or CM that was modified to a 2-seater! But for sure this was not done by the Factory! Another candidate could be one of the monofaro-A6GCS, as the steering is on the left and the caption mentioned a 2000cc-car!

    Ciao!
