Default Vintage Buggy Quiz

Hi guys,
this morning on our Italian RC car forum (www.automodelli.it) one member has submitted to the comunity this nice Excel file ...

Actually the excel file is a vintage buggies quiz, there are some photos and for each photo you have to guess the name of the buggy.

You can download the file here:
http://www.jokerteam.it/rc/quiz.htm

A little translation for non italian user :
Insert the correct name of the buggy (without the brand) in the yellow cell under each photo.

After entering the name (when you move to another cell) you will get the result:
No, Riprova = Wrong
Esatto!! = Correct !!

Please note that ther'are some bugs, so for example under the Cat 3000 photo (is it a vintage buggy ??) you have to enter only cat to get "Esatto!!"

If you are really a Vintage buggies guru, your score must be at least 35/40 !!!

Check it out and have fun !!!
Bye Emanuele
P.S. I'm not a really vintage expert, my score is only 12/40 !!!

I got 21, but a few names wouldnt enter in, that is if im right, but that is a TRX 1 no? I should know that as i had both TRX buggies lol.

Also the mid custom sp, if i was right, couldnt find any typing to give me an answer...then again....maybe i was wrong LOL.

Cool quiz, thanks for posting!

Anyone seen my anorak? 38/40

I got 32 from top of head, and got a further 6 my looking closely at the decals (the names are right on the car, nice an' easy). Taken my ages typing in the same model time after time to get it how the spreadsheet wanted, all good fun though.

I got stuck on numbers 3 and 4. If anyone can help with either it would be nice to know for my general knowledge. 3 looks like a Hirobo, but I don't know what. I was tempted to think maybe it's some rare Kyosho that's someone gone under my radar?

Okay, got them all now. Only the last one involved looking at the decals.

I'm stuck on 11.
Looks to be an Optima rip-off. We never saw any of those "clone" cars in Oz so I'm stuck on that one.

I remember seeing some of these kits in the shops when I was a kid.
Don't remember so many of the model names though haha
I must admit I haven't seen some of the models before but with some cheating (model names visible!) I managed a score of 29

Bender, how about giving us the answers?
