Amilcar C6 - Grand Prix car for the road

November 12, 2021 — Bruno von Rotz 73

In the 1920s, a sleek sports car called the Amilcar C6 was built in Paris. Thanks to its powerful in-line six-cylinder engine with two overhead camshafts and supercharger, it could compete with the fastest cars and was essentially a Grand Prix car in disguise. Only a few examples could be built at the price for which you could have bought a Bugatti Type 35A. This makes it all the more appealing to come across one of these rare two-seaters. This vehicle report tells the short history of the Amilcar C6 and shows a surviving example in many pictures.

Cromard Special - continuous evolution up to Formula 2

June 15, 2018 — Bruno von Rotz 35

Can you build a competitive Formula 2 racing car on technology that is over 20 years old? You can, but more modern construction principles are better in the end. With the Cromard Special, the builder went through all these evolutionary steps until finally, in 1950, a fast and attractive single-seater with a chance of winning was created. The one-off survived and was recently completely restored. This report describes the long history of the British F2 racing car and shows it in many pictures.
