Last one from me for the weekend.
Looks like a repost but it isn't!
Make and model for one point.

It could be I suppose but isn't....
The puzzle car is in it's last configuration following purchase of molds from the original manufacturer.

I should give you a hint that it's not British.

Vopard Lytning Ginetta G12P.
Yes, it's the Vopard Lytning offered as a kit in the 1970s by Vopard Enterprises.
It was based on the Ginetta G12P, a one-off sports coupe built by Richard Petit of Ford Advanced Vehicles in 1966.
Vopard bought the car and the molds intending to offer the car in kit-form. It did not have the Ginetta chassis and it proved difficult to manufacture. A variety of engines and transaxles were used in the few that were built.
Yet another point for you.
