For one point, please respond and identify this car.

I guess I should have established at the outset whether it's European?

Sommer prototype from Denmark?

Wendax

Yes! Locked for you to tell me the model designation.

Yes, it is the first version of the Sommer S1. It was modified at least twice.
Two of the later versions can be seen here: http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=11585.0

Another point for you.

Thanks for the great picture, I've never seen this version before. Anyone know for certain how many of these cars were built, or if it was just one vehicle that received modifications over time? I'm pretty sure one (it) still exists in the Ole Sommer museum.

If I understand the Danish text of the museum brochure right, there was only one car that was modified over the years (including the use of a two-stroke engine during the years 1955 to 1957).
