Is this a german one-off of the 1940s?

[fromwien]

No

[kwgibbs]

Was it produced in small numbers?

[fromwien]

No

[D-type]

Not a one-off, not produced in small numbers.  So, was it a mass-produced sporting car?

[kwgibbs]

Was it british?

Is this a german one-off of the 1940s?

Dear D-type, please be so kind and try to read questions ans answers as complete ones, and don't take parts out of the whole context:
Question: Is this a german one-off of the 1940s? Answer: No
Question: Was it produced in small numbers? Answer: No
It is a one-off.. and not of the 1940s and not German, because it is..

Was it british?

Yes. LOCKED for 'kwgibbs' for three attempts to find the solution

[kwgibbs]

Actually no idea what it is,but was it a Lanchester model of 1950s?

[fromwien]

I do not know the donor car too, only the builder's name and little information about the engine. Not 1950's

I see: It's back to the confusing Boolian Logic

[fromwien]

Sorry, 'D-type', but the question: "German one-off of the 1940s", describes exactly a car, only one time built in Germany, 1940-1949.
This isn't equivalent to three different questions:
1) German?
2) One-off?
3) Of the 1940s?

[D-type]

Exactly. 
Anybody else on here would have replied "One-off but not German and not 1940s" or said "One question please". 
Saying a simple "No" gives the false impression that it is not a one-off

[fromwien]

I hope, I described as clear as possible, what I understand by the question 'German one-off of the 1940s'. It describes exactly a car, only one time built in Germany, between 1940-1949. No more, no less.

In case I confused you, I will provide further hints:
1) It is British (not German)
2) It is a one-off
3) It is of the 1940s
4) I have no proper name for the car, but the name of the builder
5) I have little information about the engine of the car
6) I have another picture of the car, which I attached to this reply proudly
7) I will UNLOCK to give everybody a next chance to solve this puzzle soon

Trust me, further helps and hints are guaranteed, to get all my remaining puzzles solved as soon as possible

[fromwien]

UNLOCKED and up to the Masters

V8 Special by F. Holland of Derby. Bespoke tubular chassis. Engine, gearbox, and rear axle were from a Ford V8 30 hp. The car is 14.5 feet long with a wheelbase of 9.5 feet. The source is from 1949, so it was built sometime prior to that.
