Solved - NEH 1446: "Gladiator" built by Barry Taylor - 1957

For 1 point, what's this car's name, what is it based on and who built it?

Google Image Search continues to raise its ugly head on AutoPuzzles.
For the sake of our newer members who may not be aware of past discussions on it, Google Image Search as a means of solving puzzles is banned on this website.

AutoPuzzles is primarily a game of automotive knowledge, not of who can copy and paste the quickest.

We ask all members to remember and respect this, and retain the right to ask puzzle-solvers how they came to their answer.

Have fun!

That's it, although I would have said it's the Gladiator!
It has an MG TC engine, a tubular chassis and MG TF axles, suspension and brakes.
