skoda 136 rapid custom?

It is based on a Skoda Rapid yes, but I'll need much more information than that for the point!
For instance the other parts of the question: who built this and when; also the car has a name which I'll need.
But since you've got the first bit right I'll lock it for you for 24 hours to see if you can find the rest (that means only you can answer this puzzle for the next 24 hours).

No.  It is by an established maker of production car-based customs.

You've got the right car, yes, thought I don't recognise the name.
I've tried translating it but it won't give me anything different!
I have an English name for it so I'll lock it for you to see if you can give me the name I have.

I couldnt read my own writing, it should have read " Snehurka" which I believe translates as "Snow White"

Still not quite what I have (in English).
It's "White ******" (don't count the stars)
Still locked for you!

Indeed it is!
I couldn't get the computer translator to come up with that from your name, but that's what it seems to be called in English!
Well done.
