Sorry, Dzima, for not answering your question, You have to wait for a little while more.  ;D

For one point, please respond and identify this car by telling the base car and its builder.

I assume the base car is a VW beetle. It reminds me of the Condor kitcar.

I found the builder (monsieur Spock, but I don't know his name) and some images:
I am right?

The builder's name isn't Spock, but you certainly found the right source. Have a closer look and you will find the builder.

Yes! Daniel Brunel built this polyeaster-bodied Berlinette based on a Renault Alpine chassis. It originally had a 1300G engine, then a Renault 5 Alpine engine. The current engine is not known.

One point for solving your own puzzle.  :thumbsup: :D
