It's very similar to the Duncan Drone, but if you compare the two there are several detail differences. Stumped as to what it is though!

Yes, I can certainly see why you said that.  Similar era of course.
But that's not what it is!

Seems to have Ford wheels and front axle, and it looks a bit big for a Ford 10, so perhaps Ford V8 powered.
Could be the first of Bob Gregory's specials

Not Ford V8 powered and not a Bob Gregory special!

Buckler fitted with a Lincoln V12 engine!
Also featured a Ford front axle and wheels.

Congratulations.

Well I don't really use Google that much but I had a feeling it might have been a Buckler or Ford Special of some sort.
Then I knew where to look...........
Thanks for your congrats - you just gave me my 50th point!
