It is a Wee Three

Yes it is.
You've earned your point but before I award it and move it can you also say who built it and what was its FULL name?

So did you manage to find the information you were looking for when you stumbled on Michel Orain's Trois Rous?

For the moment I only know that the photograph was taken by Mark Snowden in 1984 in front of the house of the Wee Three builder

That's the builder, yes, so I'll give you the point.
The car is billed as the MS Cars Wee Three, but whether that was an official name or not I don't know, so the name of the builder is good enough!

Have you ever seen this one before? Does the roof line remind you of a certain car?
Who built this unusual car, what was it named and what engine was fitted?
One point on offer.

Thanks PJ, I think I must have originally searched for 'We Three' and it didn't show up.
