I remember seeing this car in Classic & Sportscar, in the early 90's. And, for the life of me, I can't find that issue!

I'm not sure if it wasn't in the 1980s but I could be wrong.....

Those rear lights are from a 100E Ford Pop, so I wonder what else is.
Engine?

Yes, you're on to something there.....
It is Ford based but the question is now who built it?
As a small clue - it's not the only car that was built by this person.
LOCKED for you for another guess.

Thanks but I can't find anything like this one.
The only car with some vague similarity is Auto Kraft but I suppose it's nothing to do with that?
Better give barrett the chance I think!

It was built by Mike Cannon of Cannon Trails car fame! Based on Ford Y-Type underpinnings if I remember rightly?
