No. But if you tell me which trophy you think it won, I will tell if if you are correct, to the best of my ability.

Nope. 

The year this car was built, a far-out red roadster (and previous AutoPuzzle) won the award. The following year, a somewhat more traditional car, based upon a vehicle that many hot-rodders used as their canvas, took the award.

The year the puzzle car broke cover, the Fab Four and the Jersey Boys were being distributed by the same label (in the US).

Doesn't seem to be in the google database. Doesn't seem to be American, isn't European, I'll say it is either an Ausie rod or a Canadian rod circa 1964. Must not have been regarded as anything special, by all accounts. Just about to give up on this obscure roadster. ???

It is an American build, and the car (and its builder) are Google-able.
