It was featured there as well as in another weekly UK motorsport magazine.
Good hunting - if you find it you'll immediately have the answer......

A special from 1956 built by Bob Yeates, based on Ford 1172 bits. No official name given...


...I suppose it was only a matter of time before this selection of puzzles was mined but I managed to miss all the previous examples!
