You mean Dex's car? Evo II? If so, I think it's acutually the 935 that's for sale... I didn't stick around long enough for the awards...I was already melting by noon.

[MBZ16V]

i think both his cars r for sale...im sure his Evo II rep.

[redline]

That thing in the first picture looks like an early Ferrari, those weber carbs have to be Ferrari, some mercedes, not sure, I see a w100 600 SWB, possibly a Triumph TR-6 Club racer, Cadillac Serie 65 Eldo, Mercedes 300 (either a 300d cabriolet B or 300S I think), 300sl gullwing.

Pic1: The blue car is not a Ferrari. Get just the marque right, and I'll give the point.
Pic2: Yep, Webber Carbs, but not on an F-car
Pic3: yep 1969 600 Divided SWB (It's all about the old skool white Microphone mounted on the Steering wheel
Pic4: Some Mercedes is correct :P
Pic5: No responses yet
Pic6: Tiff got that one
Pic7: The color should be a giveaway, but no responses yet
Pic8: Not a Triumph
Pic9: Yep! Eldo pimp-mobile
Pic10: Yep, Adenauer in da house
Pic11: Tiff beat you to it, but you are correct sir.

Redline: 4pts. (Cause even I can't remember for sure what 4 was, but I'd guess 220S Cab)
Tiff: 2pts.

This ain't Jeopardy.... :P I'll need a real guess.

Oh, and if you could include to what picture you are referring, that would help.

[redline]

I'm still trying to figure out the green car in photo 7. Not MG, Bentely, Austin Healey, RR, Lea-Francis, Jaguar... what other British Marques are there?

It is indeed a Bentley...I just don't like people fishing with half-answers ;) You want the point? name the Bentley.

[MBZ16V]

[FrankW]

can't name the Bentley, but can I get a point for that yellow Jaguar E-type in the reflection...hahaha
