No, looks like an Alfa doesn't it?

This makes me think of Alfa - Holden..
Tough one. An hour of hard work and absolutely nothing yet  :o Was the engine indeed domestic and the chassis from abroad?

No, the engine it's not Alfa but it's not domestic either. The chassis is unknown (by me).

It looks much the same. I'll try to figure out the right name of the car.

I think this is no coincidence...probably these cars are the same in a previous life, the number plate is different, but the car is too much the same to be completely different! This one is locked for you till your next guess.

I found where your pic cames from and there is not the name I have for this car...
The name I have is the one of another driver, who also raced with the other car I posted and both the cars had the same license plate. This pilot drove different specials, and they all were named after the engine, so technically Cadillac Special will be the right answer, since I did not ask for the pilot's name, I declare this one open for all, 1 point goes to faksta who found the car, another one is for the name of the pilot.

Well done!
This car, and the other posted, share the same plate, KF-149 from Victoria, and the car is called Cadillac Special and Mercury special in the same source!
Another poit for you.
