I found the exact same photo on-line but without any caption or details.
I scanned entry lists for No.18 and that was my first guess.
Perhaps it's the Consul Special 1500cc of J. Baylis?

We have a winner!

(This is information from online so obviously fallible, I'll be happy to be corrected if anyone knows for sure)

The Consul Special, also known as the Rhodes Special. Ford Consul engine and VW front end.

What I experienced today might be a forecast of what woodinsight might experience in the near future, as well... ;)

I understand Allemano - frustration at being unable to jump in and answer when you have the solution.
However I'm not there yet........

Won't be long, and it's a desert up here - all the interesting stuff gets sorted out before we get a go!
Opinionated but sometimes wrong

There must be a solution to that Allan - I understand your point of view.
Time to reflect on how one can address that I think.........
Anyhow, perhaps if I reach that exalted position, I can express a few thoughts of my own
