I can't find an image, but I think the last Rejo, the mk6, was rear-engined.  Is this it ?

Is this a one-off special, or is it from a low-volume maker who constructed other types of racing car ?

You are right.

Technical specifications:

Engine: Ford 1300cc
Configuration: rear engined, rear-wheel drive
Driver: Angelo Farina
Class: Formula 1300
Date taken: September 1977 at start, Croft
Angelo Farina was a long time supporter of formula 1300 and its predecessor, Formula 1200. He built his first special in the 1950s, and set up a cooperative in 1978 to help drivers build there own racing car by offering help, tools and a workshop in his home town of Swindon.

Closely related to this car?:

Probably the same chassis, upgraded from the old 1172 Ford engine to the Kent pushrod for the new Formula 1300.
