Norman "Wizard" Smith's 1932 LSR car?

EDIT: Norman "Wizard" Smith's racing car, "Enterprise", built by auto and aircraft engineer Don Harkness.

'Wizard' Smith's 'Enterprise', Sydney, 4 August 1931 : Well wishers surround Norman 'Wizard' Smith's 'Enterprise', before his attack on the world land speed record. The attempt was successful, and on 26 January 1932 at Ninety-mile Beach, New Zealand, the 'Enterprise' reached 164 miles per hour, to capture the 10 mile record. Designed by Sydney engineer Don Harkness, the 26 foot long vehicle was powered by a 1700 horsepower aircraft engine.

Thank you Otto and Ecnelis for pointing out that it's a repost.
I had a different name and that's why I didn't find it.
“F.H. Stewart Enterprise” is the name I had for the builder.
