Hamill SR2.

The Hamill mcKee SR3 had the exact same body, but I believe this is the earlyer SR2.

You definatly get the point since this car is a Hamil. All my sources however state that this is the SR3 not the SR2. Having seen photos of both cars they do indeed look exactly the same. So unless you knew where and when the pic came from there's no real way of knowing which car is shown.
 The picture is a cropped version of the orignal showing car builder Ed Hamill in the 1966 Can-Am race at Laguna Seca being follwed by Bruce Mclaren's M1B.
Anyway...well done and 1 point 2U.  8)

I've read elsewhere that "the SR2 body was some 3" approx. narrower than that of the SR3, and that the SR3 had clearance bumps in the tail section for the rear tires".
