I'm not entirely certain what you mean by "custom sportscar." It was offered for sale, but not as a custom sportscar based on my understanding of the term.

I've found additional information on this car (as well as a better photograph). Here are a couple of corrections/additions to my previous responses:

VW engine, transmission, and other components were used, but the frame was made in Canada specifically for this car.

The additional photograph I've found was clearly taken at a motorsports event, but I haven't yet determined where and/or at which event the photo was taken.

I am very curious about this. Was this the only car built by its builder?
