I would have guessed Formula V

I think they used 4 bolt wheels on Formula V's in Brazil.

Djetset

Metalshapes is right that this is a Formula V car, not a Formula Ford.  Now that it's been narrowed down, it should be easy to get the answer.

Seems the answer isn't easy enough, so up the the Pros...

The answer is far not so obvious as you thought, Djetset :) The Vee's were very similar to each other...

Is it a European car? Swiss?

P.S. Could you PM me some info on a book you are taking these shots from? Not to solve all your puzzles of course, but just of pure interest? :)

Djetset

I wish a good reference book existed with these Formula cars in Faksta, but I don't have one.  This photo (plus the Ginetta you identified yesterday) came from some 'For Sale' ads I found in the back of some old magazines I was sorting through. :-\

I thought these two, Multi-Union and a couple more of your puzzles were taken from the same printed source...

Well, anyway, is the car European and, more precisely Swiss? I think you haven't yet answered that :P

Djetset

To the best of my (limited) knowledge, the car is European, but not Swiss.

Is it a Swedish RPB/Dolling?

If not, maybe a Bora?

Djetset

You got it right second time around, as this is a Bora which (to the best of my knowledge) is French (but you may know otherwise).  Well done.
