What's this called? who built it? Detailed answers are, as ever, very welcome

I thought that this may be the Pilkey Special (later the Nissen Special)?

Not that one

Leson Special?

Not that one either!

Keep going, I'm sure you'll find it...

Okay - another try!
Hand MG built by Bud Hand in Santa Monica CA 1953-1956?

Getting closer in terms of location and powerplant, however this wasn't built by Bud Hand

I think I have seen that kinda horse on a car driven by Shelby

I'm reasonably sure the body was built by Jack Hagemann and the car is MG based.
Not sure who built it yet though.

That's the one!
The Hageman MG Special, seen here at Santa Barbara in 1954. Well done!
