A Simca-Abarth Replica?

It is based on a Simca and it's possible that it was inspired by the Simca-Abarths, although the builder didn't claim that.
So that's some progress!

Believe so, though he was involved with others too.

Well, he designed this so you could say he was, but he's not a recognised  name in the car design world and he wasn't employed as a designer AFAIK.

I don't know what he was employed as, but I not an engineer.
Maybe he did do some designs for them, I don't know.
