Yes, it's the Swedish Casten of 1951.
Built by Bo Castenfors on a 1934 Ford base with a Saab engine.
One more point for you.

PJ also has this book, he write a review about this one. BTW, a very good book, in Swedish, I think thatīs not so complicated to understand the basic words

Yes I have to say the book is very good and professionally produced.
However it is not comprehensive with many Swedish one-offs and specials missing.
That's not a criticism, merely an observation.
