Yes, I think it is the same car that you mean, but I have a bit longer name for it... If you could add something, I'd leave it for you for 24h.

The driver is Stirling Moss.  The car is painted and carries number37 so it is the second time he drove the car, ie at Silverstone on 7th May 1955.  In My cars, my career by Stirling Moss and Doug Nye it is described as a Beart-Climax. 

However, the text says that Francis Beart had the car built for him by Bernie Rodger.  In the Robert Edwards biography of Stirling Moss it is listed as a Beart-Rodger - Climax .  Martyn Krejnik lists the car as a Beart-Rodger. 

So I expect the name you are looking for is Beart-Rodger-Climax.

Ner, my knowledge covers a very limited range and not many puzzles fit the frame.

I'll try to find a few for you, guys.
On the other hand (and there's a Woodstock flavor on the site these days, with all these discussions about hemp...) remember the saying If you can't be with the one you love, love the one your with.
