This one's bugging me, as I think it's a Beutler-bodied Jaguar XK120, but something doesn't look quite right on it to be this car.  Anywhere close?

Aha aha.  If it's not on the Jaguar base, then perhaps it's the Beutler Lancia Aurelia?

Aha aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh.  Well, it's not the Beutler Bristol 401 and it's not their Healey, so could it be the Alfa Romeo 6C?

Rats, I know this car, but just can't place it.  It's clearly not the usual Beutler VW or Porsche nonsense, so it is a Beutler Jowett Jupiter (he says with uncertainty!).
