It is a Swallow Doretti, yes!
But it has a name in addition to what you have said and which I need for that point!
Locked for your reply.

Swallow Doretti Sabre?

Yes indeed.
Apparently 3 of these 2+2s were made before politics killed off the project.
I think Triumph were a little too uncomforable supplying the parts for what could have been quite an attractive competitor!

Cool car!  About 15 years ago, I saw a Swallow Doretti roadster for sale in a Detroit, MI area classified for $2500!!!!!  I was in high school or college then, so no $$$$.  Didn't even go look at it.  I wish that deal would come around again!
