I don't know too much about this one. How about you?

For one point, please respond and identify this car.

It is a Mercedes-Benz replica, but I'm quite sure that it was not made by Warwick Parsons. I fact I don't know who made it, but what for.

Thank you, Wendax! That car certainly has an attitude. Thanks also for the additional pics. I wish that I had a bit of information about the construction.

I don't have any other information either. I just saw the pics recently and thought they would make a good puzzle.
