To confuse matters even more, there have been occasions where spare cars (T-cars) have had different numbers than the real racing cars. The last case of that I found (in GP's) was 1973 where a McLaren spare car had number 35, while the race cars were 7 and 8.
In the times when there were races with even numbers only, sometimes spare cars wore odd numbers.
The last time a spare car was used in a Grand Prix was only a few days ago. Last Sunday's Belgian GP had Felipe Massa driving the freshly built-up spare after crashing his intended race car on the first (?) lap of practice.
For the T's on the car, there were two variations: a starting number with a T added and just a plain T.
For the International Trophy 1958, we also have a T-car with only a P (instead of a T). That was a Maserati (Also found at MC 56)
Finally (for now) I have a 48A and 50A in MC 58
