What's this car called, who built it and when, for 1 point?

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!

It's called 'Blackhawk', a fiberglass body taken from a Cisitalia, built by Leon CLarke and Bob Laster.

Picture taken from a '56 magazine.
I believe it used an Allied Fiber-Glass body.
