Looking at the background, is this car based on a Jeep CJ of some kind?
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Is it a home-made one-off?

Yes!
I can lock it for you now to see if you can trace its origins.

Only Jeeps in the background helped, it's amazing what Google will turn up if you search: "mga based""jeep"

MGA based Roadster made in Puerto Rico, there's only one in existence, the chassis & drive train are British made while the rest of the parts were from different cars including the front fenders off a motorcycle.

The body was made from sheets of metal, the drive train and chassis are off a MGA roadster, the fenders are off a motorcycle and some parts were taken from a Jeep CJ.

It's amazing that I spent almost an hour on googling about "MG A based jeep", without any result, and I searched in google.it, .de, .co.uk, .us....not in google.portorico!
