    Nice try, as you said Ray It has been covered so many times, in so many places. Roger Dowding that's me at Leadfoot.

    That Lancia tricked me, more research shows Marino as somewhat of a special builder, as well as working with some of the big names like Dante Giacosa, but I have yet to find any more about the car itself. It still looks like anFJ sized car though when somewhat natural inclination was to think of the D50 series.
    Apparently it ran only one non championship race, 160 BHP with a Aurelia engine.

    M - British Road - so many here that I'll run it for a few days.

    Marcos - say no more... note the twist to the bonnet. There must be a story behind that as when I purchased the car, the bonnet must have been replaced at some stage as the plywood hinges were nowhere near level. After the bang at Pukekohe when I rebuilt the bonnet front, I managed to straighten it up. Alongside is the Mini Marcos that was restored for Adrian Blackburn, road legal only the day of Targa scrutineering.

    Hi Milan, I found plenty on the creator, much less on the car itself.

    " Roger Dowding that's me at Leadfoot. "

    If you run your mouse over any of my pics Roger, the image name should crop up - in which case, it is year (3 digits - so 216 = 2016), followed by month (2 digits) and day of the month (2 digits) followed by a sequence number for the day - 2, 3 or at Goodwood, 4 digits.

    So the picture of Rhys at Leadfoot is 7th February 2016, sequence 588.

    Ray has answered that for you, however also ran it as a demonstration at Roycroft in the "Grand Prix of Yesteryear" which was intended as a demonstration of cars that could have run against each other in the period. The actual cars, not those of a similar type, so for example a Cooper 500 had to be one in the country, at the time, not a fresh import, even from the 60s.
    I have been invited back each year since too maybe one day I'll make it again, if the NZ Government lets Shelly, Rod's wife in.

    The " secret " is unlocked, thanks, Ray [ and Rhys too ! ].. I did wonder about the numbers [ my system is very haphazard by comparison].

    Cheers

    My logic Roger, is that I can scan old photographs (car and non-car) and however they are stored from then on, they will always list in date order, which is why I have often posted queries on here and have been very grateful for Milan and others, giving the date some certainty.

    If the pics are taken by family members for example, then if it is brother Dave, 216_0207_01, becomes 216_0207d_01, which stops it overwriting my own.

    Until I have a date, even a rough one, the pics really can't be filed. Very tough with old slides.

    There has to be a logic when there are over 50,000 car pics alone plus family and travel pics (and increasing).

    Mercedes - why this pic? The number plate tells it all. C 13 OBE has to be read as CB OBE - owned by Chris Barber, OBE, my all time favourite jazz band leader. A real enthusiast having owned many interesting cars and raced a Lotus Elite, in the UK and in Germany. He finally hung up his trombone August 2019, aged 89. Good friends with Bernie Ecclestone (same age) and Sir Jackie Stewart.

    Chris got done for speeding in the UK two or three years ago - twice in two days on the M6. Clocked at 96mph going to a gig and 94mph returning... Usually had Brabus modified Mercs as daily drivers.

    MARCH - this was hanging on the wall at the Donington Museum for many years and was then bought by Kiwi Roger Wills. I think it was offered for sale last year, along with his Cooper.

    I'm usually only showing 1 per make Rhys, often the first that I haven't shown before. You could say the same about Coopers, or BMW's.

    With over 50,000 in the pile, I'm just working through the alphabet and will do so again when I get to the Z's, especially as there's no Revival this year, where I'd normally take several thousand pics. Caister Museum was also on my itinerary and that would have yielded quite a few 'new' pics, especially of vintage and also steam powered vehicles.

    Filed so far

    Single seaters McLarens - 251 pics

    Sports Racing McLarens - 176

    Road car McLarens - 75
