Actually one of the best places for identifying the Grand Prix chassis is still Kolumbus for me But it contains info on limited seasons.

A brief #3005 history from kolumbus:

Quote:
3005 and 3006 were narrow chassis cars raced by Sommer and Zehender in 1933. 3005 went back to the factory and was used by Taruffi. It was used by Sommer at Spa 1934 and then used in minor hillclimb events. It ended up in South Africa 1936 (Bill Roderick). 3005 was used by Zehender in 1934 first as a private entry , then as a works car.
DS-8198 car history :
13
Thus, it appears not to be a 1930 car either, but 1926.
