It is a car that was home-built but based on a recognised make.

frederick59 · April 16, 2014, 03:35:13 PM

based on Austin Seven?

D-type · April 16, 2014, 05:13:58 PM

MG based?

woodinsight · April 17, 2014, 12:20:46 AM

Neither Austin or MG based.
The marque is quite well known but not one of the mainstream manufacturers

frederick59 · April 17, 2014, 10:13:02 AM

Alvis?

woodinsight · April 22, 2014, 03:15:57 AM

Not an Alvis - much less refined!

frederick59 · April 22, 2014, 10:23:21 AM

Is it mainly a racing car manufacturer?

woodinsight · April 22, 2014, 10:52:39 AM

Yes, the majority of the cars they produced were used in competition.

This particular car used one of the base models of this manufacturer but it was built/modified as a one-off.

An Elva?

woodinsight · April 23, 2014, 01:04:08 AM

Not Elva but you're moving in the right direction
