From the 1950s?

I believe so. The image is from the 1960s but I'm sure the car was built in the previous decade.

Denmark Ford 10

Well found! I'd more or less forgotten about this puzzle - I'm glad you posted the full advert because I've deleted my copy. I have no idea why it was called the Denmark. Maybe it was built by someone with that name or possibly a garage/tuner of that name.

Two points.

[pnegyesi]

if it was featured in Autocar in the 1950s, I may be able to find it at some point
Thanks for the two points

Possibly got its name from Denmark Hill in SE London (SE5 or SE24) between Camberwell and Dulwich. Not that I can say why.
