Actually you posted a pic of this a long ago. It's the converted Lolette Chevrolet V8.

Yes I know.
As I originally stated this puzzle is technically a repost of the car in a different configuration.
Can you therefore tell me at what circuit this picture was taken and the reason the car became a coupe for the point?
LOCKED for you.

Did you mean Goodwood, 1964 and Eric Brockhoven at the wheel? Other info I can't provide I'm afraid.

Okay Allemano, that's enough to award you a point before I put this in the Solved section.
The full story of the car was told in my previous puzzle of the car (courtesy of PJ) and as I understand the car was converted to a coupe in 1964 partly due to Eric Brockhoven receiving a thorough soaking at that year's Goodwood meeting.

Perhaps an admin can now merge this puzzle with my MJW #039 - thanks in advance.

Here's another picture of the car whilst it was a coupé:
