Are we talking about S.A. Minerva Motors, founded in Antwerpen, Belgium, in 1900 and that built luxury machines between 1902 and 1938?

2001:BLACKISTON

There was only one 1912 Blackiston, and no one knows what became of it. That is perhaps a good thing, since the car is most famous for being a one-of-a-kind, having an engine cover so large you couldn't see what was in front of it, and manslaughter. The product of George P. Blackiston, more tinkerer than visionary, his leviathan was a tribute to, well, no one knows, really. But it existed, and to the true tinkerer not much else matters. We won't spoil the it for you – if you enjoy a bit of intrigue with your internal combustion, then click on through to Hemmings for a good story well told.

OK, I still can't confirm it's the same but I have an idea.
For the moment I have to say it's not that, unless you have something more about...
