It's the very first Buchanan from the mid 1950's and just known as the Buchanan Coupe, which used Ford Zephyr straight-6 power.

This particular design never got into production and only the one was made, but Buchanan went on to make convertible kit cars based on the styling of the Aston-Martin DB3S.
