Is this an Australian Clubman's car?

Somehow, I didn't think it was but wanted to eliminate it.

The only other Clubmans I know of - the Haggispeed?

Here endeth my knowledge of Clubman's cars.  Cue a sigh of relief from GTE4289 who doesn't have to tactfully say  :crap: to my guesses any more (on this puzzle anyway)

Not at all. I, too, know very little about these cars.

Gryphon ?
No. According to my source, this is a driver-built, one-off special.

Centaur?
It's not identified as such, but I can't rule out the possibility that it may have been based on a Centaur.

Built in the seventies ?

I am not sure when it was built, but I would guess sometime in the 1980s. The owner/builder was driving a different (but similarly-named) special in 1978.
