Thank you. I have an idea, but I won't try before the answer from Allemano...

I'm surprised that woodinsight is stuck as the right answer is only a tiny step away.

Go ahead faksta! :)

That's okay - I was away from my usual sources and couldn't progress further in the time limit.

Scirocco 01 BRM, chassis SP-1-63.

Have to say that from this angle I was in doubt even when I've found quite an amount of pictures of Scirocco-BRM. Always thought it looked more conventional from the rear.

And thank you for a chance, woodinsight! It would take more time without your guess, to be honest.

That's still not the complete name I have! Try again! After that I unlock it again.

Strange, because that's how I knew it... Probably you want to hear the name of the team? Scirocco Powell Racing or Equipe Scirocco Belge?

The first is the name I was after. I have it listed as Scirocco-Powell with BRM engine from 1963. According to my source four cars were built. The puzzle car seems to be the first one or a prototype as the mag from which I've took the photo dates from 1962.
Meanwhile I've checked the internet and apologize faksta, you might said it correctly. Obviousely it only was named "Scirocco 01".

You know... I'm curious about the date of the shot indeed...

And no apologies, please ;)
