Time to use up the left overs;

Sweeping up;

bauble · 28 Oct 2021, 02:12 (Ref:4080348)

I know!

E.B · 28 Oct 2021, 04:58 (Ref:4080364)

I have said it before but I am rather fond of your left overs and sweepings. Love the blue Frazer Nash in #5176 at the bottom

rbs · 28 Oct 2021, 07:25 (Ref:4080372)

Sorry Chris that is not a Nash. It is the Bequet Delage. This was a Grand Prix car of the day driven by Rene Thomas and used an Hispano Suiza aircraft engine of just 12 litres.

Whoops. My bad.

Thanks for the correction and info. I have to be honest and did not think it was a Frazer Nash badge, but not being able to identify the Delage badge I 'cheated' and searched the registration number on https://vehicleenquiry.service.gov.uk/
..... and they told me SV9108 was a blue Frazer Nash! So I took their word for it. Should have gone with my instinct that it was not a Nash badge.

Beautiful car none the less.....

Thanks RB I did not want to burst his bubble myself, I think it kinder coming from you. A few more for EB to ID for us.

bauble · 28 Oct 2021, 09:33 (Ref:4080387)

To mollify EB;

bauble · 28 Oct 2021, 09:38 (Ref:4080388)

And then put a smile on his face. Cheers EB.

S griffin · 28 Oct 2021, 09:48 (Ref:4080389)

It is not the Bequet Delage but a pastiche of it hence the F N registration and was built I believe by Roger Sweet

The obvious giveaway is the Curtiss aero engine instead of the Hisso that is in the B -D

Good to see some reaction on the thread, shows some people are viewing.

bauble · 28 Oct 2021, 22:08 (Ref:4080490)

Let us hope for more;

bauble · 28 Oct 2021, 22:14 (Ref:4080491)

Well it makes a change;

Thanks RT for the additional info. And there was me thinking pastiche were things that originated in Cornwall (and were much copied

) and available in bakeries even down under.
One thing I have learnt is I can now recognise a Delage badge!

Jenson Button and Kevin Magnussen, RD of course, a McLaren team shot and Sam Michaels I think as the token Aussie. Year would be 2014 as Sam left at the end of that year and KMag joined at the start of it. Also Mercedes badges in the background.... they would be Honda in '15.

S griffin · 29 Oct 2021, 09:21 (Ref:4080527)

Also the pink shirts I am sure would have been in tribute of John Button, who died at the beginning of 2014

Gerard C · 29 Oct 2021, 15:07 (Ref:4080575)

And the special Tiger looks great, watta shape. Nice view.

bauble · 29 Oct 2021, 22:24 (Ref:4080620)

What have we got;

bauble · 29 Oct 2021, 22:27 (Ref:4080621)

Next, please;

bauble · 29 Oct 2021, 22:32 (Ref:4080622)

And again;

bauble · 29 Oct 2021, 22:33 (Ref:4080623)

Goodnight!
