For 1 point I'll need: Make, exact base and from when it dates, builder, year completed, who was responsible for the bodywork and the car's nickname!

ANYONE FOUND GIVING ANSWERS OBTAINED BY USING GOOGLE SEARCH BY IMAGE MAY BE BANNED FOR AN INDETERMINATE PERIOD!

No, it's a one-off special rather than a replica.  Which means it's not a Carisma Century.

No.  Believe it was just built for personal use.

This is Graham Garrett's Jaguar 3.8 litre special nicknamed 'The Brute".
It was built using a Mk IX chassis and a 6-cylinder 3.8-litre engine from 1959. Parts from other Jaguar models were also used including the radiator and grill from a Mk V.
The bodywork was crafted by Classic Car Panels of Frome and the car was completed in 1992.

Thanks Carnut!
Easy for me perhaps as I have an interest in Jaguar and other specials......(my MJW #1103 seems to be proving more difficult though!)
