Looks like it might be British Ford based. Looks like a Buckler wearing an ill fitting Austin Healey Sprite suit!  ;D

You're actually very close to the right answer with that one!
So close in fact that I'll lock it for you to find out the other details apart from the fact it's a Buckler.

Yours for 72 hours (as I'm away from home at the moment so don't have my files with me!)

Well it's the other way around actually but will assume that's what you mean!

Thanks! I've seen the car but I didn't know if it was Peel or Buckler who made it ; there is very little info on this car ...

OK - the fact that it was a Buckler had already been established in earlier posts on this thread so I wasn't giving anything away!
