The first received a fast back hard top. Looks like a Custom Automotive North but slightly different. Le Mans works Twin Cam replica?

I think the MGA is the ex-Ted Lund car isn't it? An original car not a replica.

Obvs I know the tin top, there's a ZR160 like this sat on my drive as I type.

Years ago a family friend had a Sunbeam Tiger, fun to ride in, and this one looks quite Rorty doesn't it?

The C Type Midget is a lovely little car. This one looks well used, I don't know the driver. Whilst I'm not a fan of 50/60s era cars, I love pre-War stuff.

Well, why wouldn't I know the next car? This one looks like it's in HSCC Roadsports spec.

And finally Esther - a Bumble for Bauble. I can't remember if this was a ZA or a ZB Magnette. IIRC it was built by the late Roger Andreason when he was also building Chevrons. Down Poole way wasn't it? It was one of the cars that established Historic Saloons as a mainstream branch of the sport, I think.

Having enlarged the picture again I think it's a ZA with the smaller back window.

I dunno how much a Tiger is fun to drive, but the one we raced against was not impressive. It was a long time ago, Estoril, Martin S at wheel.
The TZ is one of the most good looking racing car ever, imo. Plus "raffinée" qu'une GTO.

The answer might have been obvious so had to put together the question on a weird mode. Lets say ?* la bauble… Looking for a driver.

Following my uncle's example, I exercised myself as a rider. I won the first motorcycle race I entered. Just after loosing my rider road license, I was hired by a works team. Then I moved to four wheeler. For my first experience, my natural elegance was not really appreciated. Later I changed my suits and tie for a more relaxed outfits driving my F1 with sandals.
I escaped death for a phone call… I'm not superstitious. Not at all. After a withdrawal I decided that a trophy had to be unhooked… Shocking? I lived without fear to be ridiculed or judged, I've been said provocative.
Gentlemen… start your search!

I see you need an another one…*
What was the second first name of José Gonzalez? Froilan or Jean Pierre?
Was he related to Speedy Gonzales? Yes. No.
He won two F1 GP's on an island you do know quite well. Was it the British Grand Prix or the British Grand Prix?
He drove cars under the banner of Cavallino Rampante. Were those Ferraris or Amilcar?
Well there's a trick here: if you answer Jean Pierre you must answer Amilcar! Or Speedy!

Nobody interested in the answer of # 812? It is said that only Gilles Villeneuve style could match his. Not superstitious, he loved the # 13 but never had it during a race. Fearless, he could have lost his liberty and life just to kiss his beloved wife in public. A joke involving a cigarette was not "uniformly" appreciated. Rider, driver and plane pilot too…
Think bauble and RB at least will tell us more.

Non désolé, Mon Ami, il ne s'agit pas de Gonzales. The one you're looking for was said to have a very good view. Very very good… Hence his nickname.
