no, as far as I know this was his only car. There is only one site where the car is described which has recently been referenced on a Hungarian forum.

I wish I could find some information on this little home-built car, no luck so far, it would be a shame for it to end in the black hole

Even though this little car was built in Hungary,did the builder use any American influence in building this car?

Guys, it is time to solve this one.

A clue: the puzzle pictures were taken by a professional photographer. Now try to think logically. Where you can find such photos online?

Here's another picture I just got from the family

Sorry, I somehow missed your replies.

1, It is not a magazine which features this car online

2, Not Feri Grosz

3, The car did not have a name
