US, early 50s, flathead V8?


..but Yes!
That's about all I know about this car.
Here's the blurb that accompanied the picture:

QUOTE
Of all the cars at this years Americana Festival I thought this one was the most interesting. Cobbled together some 60 years ago, it is not a Crosley Hot Shot as I first thought. Some old guy, probably now dead, put this together years ago by piecing various body parts on a fabricated frame. It is powered by a Ford 60 h.p. flathead v-8. Back in those days people were truly ingenious, working with little money but excellent craft skills and creativity.
