Stanguellini
- Chassis Number CS00159
- This 1959 Stanguellini Formula Junior has a build date of December 5, 1959.
It was imported by Alfred Momo into the United States, arriving early in 1960. Inasmuch as the front-engined Formula Juniors were essentially obsolete with the introduction of the Cooper rear-engined Type 52 and others, the Stanguellini was sold and raced around the Northeast and Midwest through the 1960s and 1970s. At one time this particular Stanguellini sold for only $250. - Finally, Stanguellini CS00159 was rescued by vintage racer Peter Giddings in 1977. Peter owned and raced a number of Stanguellini Formula Juniors. After restoration, the car was sold to Dennis Burkey of Virginia who ran CS00159 in the Mid-Atlantic area into the late 1980s. Pam Lyford brought CS00159 to the Northwest in the early 1990s.
- The car was then purchased by the current owner in 2005. He went on to campaign the car in vintage races, including the 5oth Anniversary of Formula Junior feature at the Monterey Reunion, and most recently at the 2022 Monterey Reunion.

Faranda
- Built in 1959 by Giuseppe Faranda, this advanced Formula Junior was raced in 1960 before being locked away after Farandas death at Modena Autodrome in October of that year in a De Sanctis.
- The car was then stored until 1974 and little used until I purchased it in 2018.
- Over the past five years the car has been developed into a very effective race car.
- In 2021, the Faranda was fitted with a new Setford Racing Engine, new inlet manifolds and exhaust system with open pipe and silencer configurations. The gearbox was also fully rebuilt at that time with close ratios.
- The engine has just had a full rebuild by Setford Racing and has only run once, following rolling road testing, immediately prior to successfully competing at the 2023 80th Goodwood Members Meeting.
- Over the winter of 2022 the car was completely rewired and new fuel pump, coil, rev counter, oil pressure gauge, and fire extinguisher fitted. Seat belts are in date and the Borrani wheels have just been fully refurbished at considerable expense.
- The car was fitted with new Dunlop Tyres for this years Goodwood Members Meeting.
- There is a large spares package including the original engine, gearbox, exhaust system and inlet manifolds, half engine, spare gearbox, drive shafts and output shafts, and original mechanical rev counter, cable and gearbox.
