Assuming there are carbs. under that cover that rather limits the options: non-crossflow engine with the inlet/exhaust on the right, which is why I thought MG.
Possibly Triumph, then, but not a TR chassis as there seem to be dumb irons.
Pre-war?

Triumph TR based is correct Allan.
I'll lock it for you until your next reply.
I just need the name of this special for the point.
Here is another view -

Since I don't know it I'll leave it for the others. Cheffins auctioned a nameless TR2 Special, HSL 815, in June 2003, but I have no photo if it, so it could be this one.

Thanks Allan.
The registration number you quoted is different to this one.

Good guess but it's not that.
This one has a specific name and is a one-off.

Welcome to AutoPuzzles bentleyspecial - I'm sure you'll find it interesting

Triumph TR3 PECKMILLS Mk2 SPECIAL

Peckmills Special was what I was looking for - well done Joao.

I actually have based on a 1958 TR2 chassis.
The car was built by Jeff Luff in 1999.
