Well, I'm sure there is more to the story, but it appears to be someone's knock off of an Aston Martin DBR1. The wheelbase looks shorter than a DBR, but it could be just the angle of the shot.

Not an Aston Martin,It“s a special one-off automobile.

It“s from Argentina and this period too! But I have it with another completely name.
Can you prove that this is a Sport 001 and that I have a wrong information?

 I've found "the picture" on the web that shows the car as "Sport 001.  Sport en Villa Carlos Paz - Córdoba (Circa 1961-1963)".  That's all the information they give. This website is about (strictly) Argentinian cars. That's all I have. And I think its not enough but.....  I'll keep digging anyway

I've found a Chat where they talk about this car. Some guy wrote that
This is the “Manera Special” built at Rafaela. 

Sponsored by Don Luis Manera.
Chassis: Mercedes Benz 170
Safety and Motor: Ford 1947.
Body: Tandem, made of aluminum and iron.
Mechanics: Ponce prepared engine, with Edelbrock lids and 2  double intake Holley carburetors
José Fanta made assembly and alignment of the chassis.
Sanchez Brothers built the bodywork.
Maximum speed: 172 kph.
and it was  Aston Martin DB R 1 "reproduction"

That“s it! I think this source is more reliable
