    Thank you Frame for this update and link. When funds ease, I might find room for this on my shelf.

    German Protos

    The Protos car that was assembled for the 1908 race is not related to the race car of today. The Protos company was bought by the Siemens Corporation almost immediately after the race of 1908. It was manufactured up into the 1930s when it was abandoned by Siemens. Cheers. Michael. The Great Auto Race 1908 | In the Beginning

    I get it is a response to my question on a previous page, thank you. Since then I have found out that the 1967 wooden Protos 16 formula 2 cars had no relation to the early Protos - they were built by Frank Costin for Ron Harris.
