Solved - MJW #574 - Chelco Chevrolet Mk 1 1970

An oddly proportioned racing coupe.
For a point I require the make, nationality, engine and year.

Year 1970, I was looking for more photos. That year won the SP championship in Argentina driven by Néstor Jesús García Veiga .

Very good, the point is yours.
I wonder what the reason is for the raised/domed roof? More aerodynamically efficient?

I think it has to do with a minimum car height for homologation.

Thanks Wendax.
Come to think of it several other racing coupes in Argentina also appeared with these heightened roofs.
