it's a GN powered by a 6124cc air-cooled aeroplane engine (Cirrus I think) called the Parker GN

I think this is not the Parker GN, but Frank Cuttell's Cirrus Special, built in Australia, recently for sale.

I've attached some photos of the Cirrus and one of the Parker GN for comparison reasons.

A slightly expanded view of the puzzle image appears on Frank Cuttell's official web site.  I think this means this car is not a Parker GN.

Yes I was wrong about the Parker.
What's more the car in question was brought to the UK by Mike Crehan who did a lot of work, shortening the wheelbase and sorting it out.
It was offered on eBay earliet this month
