Slow down!  The rule is only one question at once..
However, it's not Italian, is front-engined AFAIK and is not air-cooled.

So this is not made by a vehicle manufacturer, is this then a kit car?

No, it's not a kit car.  It's the only one.

Looking at the replies, I wonder if you are sure its not air cooled and front engined. As I think I know what this is, but then it's most likely air cooled and rear engined....

I might aswell say what I think it is, it's a Cheetah MK2 Le Grand from the mid sixties, only for or 4 of these cars were build. Made in California, by Aldin Le Grand. Powered by a BMW 700 air cooled boxer engine. And I suspect as it was used in the BMW cars in the back, it is fitted here at the rear, hence the air intakes at the back.

Yes, that's the car.
I only said it was front-engine "As far as I know" but I was only going by the inlet and outlet vents at the front.
If you say it was rear-engine I'll go by your superior knowledge!
However, I was not aware that the BMW 700cc flat-twin engine was air-cooled; nothing I can find on the Internet confirms that?

It's solved anyway so you have a point. Well done.

Thanks.
Air-cooled it is!
Strange though that it's not mentioned on nearly every site.
