It bears alot of features from a DB4 GT Aston, but not nearly as refined.

English?

Kind of a neat little car actually.  Cross between a DB4 and a Henry J if you ask me...

I'd have to say...  Give The credit to Gilby.     ;)

Ok my initial thought after Gilby said Peerless was the nice looking Peerless GT.

Then it dawned on me that the GT's have tail fins that don't look like the one in the pic.  So after a bit of digging, I found this:

Prototype Peerless 333 CBH

Actually, this is the prototype Peerless GT. 333 CBH was the number tag on the car.
