It is a  Huayra Ford probably driven by Carlos Reutemann

I'm not sure if the car in my photo is being driven by Carlos Reutemann, but in all likelyhood it is.  Anyway, it is the Huayra Ford, from Argentina so you get the point.  Well done.

Amazing machine, though I think it's aerodinamically not perfectly shaped!
I would be interisting to know what these South American cars had achieved in European or North American competitions.

There was not much to do with aerodynamics - the regulations have fixed the minimum height (which was quite big, as you can see) and allowed front engined cars only back then.

I see. That's why they had those strange cone-head roof shapes! I didn't know these reglements.
