You clearly know what you're talking about. I'll lock this one for you, - you have 24 hours to finish this one, by providing "...and who built it" the information asked for under the picture.

Williams and Pritchard built the special aluminum body in 1953 to the original owners'-the Kenyons- for this Lotus 6 Special with MG XPAG engine.
