Connaught? I would guess about 1955, a Formula 2 car

Yes it does, doesn't it.
That's because it is one!

Have I repeated what has been set before (as I did with the GSM Flaming o), or did you just happen to know?!

Neither - I piggy-backed on pieter's 1952 & Formula 2 guesses.

I didn't find that particular one, but I found another that showed the hood bulge and the eggcrate grille clearly enough to  make a solid guess.

Oh good.
If you didn't find that one, you may not have found one of my other current offerings. ???
