I have it as a Ford 8hp based, realized by Super-Accessories from Browley, Kent.  It was advertised as Super-Two.

I've been waiting for that one! Missed it when the postman rang the bell.

It would have been built between 1960 and 1962 when Super Accessories folded. It was an enlarged version of the Cadet which took Austin 7 engines. Loads of these "pretend" sports cars around when I was a kid.
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia
