1960 Speedwell Sprite, sometimes known as a Speedwell GT.
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Here it is at the 1961 Racing Car Showing wearing the registration plate more commonly associated with John Sprinzel's Sebring Sprite; maybe it's the same car which went on to be modified into the Sebring..
