Do you have some additional information about where and when, maybe chassis number?

Let's turn it into a puzzle. What are the car types, when and where did they crash, and are there chassis numbers available.

I numbered the photos from 1 to 9, to be clear.

1. A T35 (T37?) and something else (left hand drive, half-elliptic springs). Probably hit each other. Have they been rolling over? How did the wheels come off?

2. Same cars as 1. Different angle.

3. A type 57 of some sort. Does it have a hood ornament? Licence plate is 9730 NV2 for as far as I can see.

4. Needs some bodywork. Type 57?

5. A T57 Ventoux, with a Dauphine (??) on its roof-rack. Very repairably. Imagine what would happen if that massive truck did not have brakes at all...

6. A T57 rolled over and landed on its feet again. Licence is 8785 JK3 (??) or please correct me.

7. A Bugatti? Short wheelbase for sure...

8. A T57 Atalante rolled over. Looks very repairable.

9. Pretty well known photo. Ettore fell asleep. Rest of family was in the car as well. Chassis 41100 proto with very handsome Weymann body. Is this the true story? Perhaps some alcohol as well? The French were not too difficult about drinking and driving.

1 and 2 were in Argentina, came from my site. For the rest, I'm waiting for comments....

And Herman: You can start a similar tread for the EB110 and Veyron. I must have a few pics of EB110 crashes for you (see my site also)

But here is a little quizz.....Where is the Bugatti....Look well, there is one...(I think) Somewhere....

The one with the white roof, on the left, could be a Bugatti. It is impossible to tell for sure though.
