I can't believe the Experts are going to let a Pro get this easy point...

Of course it is!
It's a hash of parts from both Ferrari and Jaguar, the engine being Jaguar; his later Jaguar Special is a bit better-known and has featured here before.

The body is definitely ex-Ferrari but I have seen suggestions that the chassis might have been more Maserati than Ferrari.
