No points for identifying this car's base but 1 point for giving details of who built it and why:

I thought this was a repost too, but I'll assume it's actually a different car

Cortina based?
Always remember to keep the shiny side up and the greasy side down.

Sir Stirling Moss had one built but it looks quite different from this one,
is this fastback the one-off that's in Australia?

It's not Sir Stirling's car, but there is an Australian connection.

Yes - it's another one of those!
We've had a 4-door one before but not a 2-door on AutoPuzzles.
Apparently 4 different ones were built by Bodycraft before Ford of Australia canned the whole Cortina Fastback project.
