Because I was unable to locate a clear image of this car, I am providing two versions of the only image I have. Please identify this car for a point.

"What is this that roareth thus?
Could it be an omnibus?"

6-cylinder - is it Holden-powered?

Scant knowledge have I, yet I know this at least:
A Holden heart beats not within this beast  ;)

I can't think of a rhyme - is it an American engine?

Looks like an autocross race to me, in the UK.
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Raced in the early '60s, so I assume it was built around that time

Is this the Weecan Special raced by Mike Lawrence?

Recap: Powered by a 6 cylinder Jaguar motor; shown at a U.K. autocross event in the early 1960s.

New "freebie" hint: Based on an unorthodox donor chassis.

Rear wheel steering. Is the chassis from what we call in the UK a dump truck?

Good eye! Not a dump truck, however.

Unlikely as it sounds, a fork lift truck ?
