Race cars you never heard of
Whilst surfing for unusual race cars I found this...the McCandless 500
I wonder if it had anything to do with Cromie McCandless, he was a Northern Irish Grand Prix motorcycle road racer. His best season was in 1951, when he finished in third place in the 125cc world championship behind Carlo Ubbiali and Gianni Leoni. McCandless won two Grand Prix races during his career.
I've seen him a few times in the TT parade lap they used to do every year bringing out the famous old race bikes of the past, ridden by some famous past racers.

Majola was a French manufacturer that went out of business at the end of the 1920s, along with a number of other concerns that couldn't ride above the economic Depression.

...such a shame they have such a valuable car then bodge this onto the bonnet with a bolt and a couple of nuts...that could have been so much more elegant
