I have been extremely fortunate in having been generously given a collection of 1/32nd scale Ferrari slot cars.

There are 47 cars in the collection and each one has been sprayed with the same Ferrari red paint and silver painted headlight covers. Even the drivers have been identically painted! Some are Scalextric or other production cars; some are 'kit-bashed' and some are scratchbuilt.

Some pictures of the entire collection, more-or-less grouped by type:-

I need help to indentify some of them, please!

#3 is the Bandai/Paramount plastic model
#11 probably GGN
#8 definitely Supershell body
#1 is either the Palmer kit or the Hong Kong toy copy of the Monogram (Lucky toys?)
#12, if it is resin then Auto Hobbies copy of the Highway Pioneer/Revell

I am intrigued by #36 in the top set of pictures, the only one I can't recognise, any chance a chassis picture.

Nice collection by the way.

Well spotted Peter, I agree, looks like a disguised Panhard probably to represent a front engined Dino. Chassis is Strombecker.

I too wished somebody gave me a Ferrari collection, Russell???

This is a good game.

IMO, #26 is a Supershell (the way the cockpit is pinched at the back is very Supershell). Driver is our favorite: "Happy Jack Revell"

# 89 Is probably the Eldon 250LM

In spite of what I said earlier, another unknown, #54 on row 2, anyone??
