Identify the make and base car plus the year for one point.

Not Holden powered.
This is a totally British car that had a different front appearance when built....

Sorry but not that.
The maker of this car constructed two sports racers - this one is the second one (the first has already appeared as a puzzle here). Each car had a different base and appearance.

Lagonda? DP215? V12 (not the pre-war, I think but double Aston 6 cylinders)? Weren't they used in a movie with different noses, and later used for compoetition, but underdeveloped and much good? Checkpoint, that was the movie..

No, not that.
Although it looks like an Aston Martin DB3S it has no other Aston/Lagonda connection.

No!  I was going to ask if it's a Buchanan but then I remembered your reply #11 so it can't be!

You must have read my reply #21 before I changed it to Arnott!
Golding-Cooper was going to be my next question, but now Arnott is!
