Must be American...

grobmotorix · « **Reply #3 on:** December 02, 2013, 11:51:38 AM »

Yes, but most of the invisible parts aren´t...

is there some Porsche 356 parts in this car,despite front engine?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #5 on:** December 03, 2013, 11:48:13 AM »

The body is all fibreglass.

Maybe the wheels are 356 Porsche?

I only know who built it and what was the engine.

You say "most" of the internals - so is the engine not American?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #8 on:** January 04, 2014, 08:07:54 AM »

Indeed.

Is this a rebodied single-seat car?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #10 on:** January 04, 2014, 08:29:16 AM »

No.

The basis components were taken from a very well known car.

Air-cooled engine?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #12 on:** January 04, 2014, 09:32:25 AM »

Jim Lowe's Frazer Nash Special?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #13 on:** January 04, 2014, 09:40:18 AM »

Not aircooled, so it is not a Porsche or VW engine.

And it is not a Frazer-Nash.

But this last guess hit the right country.

Triumph underneath?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #15 on:** January 04, 2014, 03:27:38 PM »

Not Triumph - it´s more powerful.

Jaguar?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #17 on:** January 04, 2014, 03:36:08 PM »

That was the easy part...

Hansgen-Jaguar Special?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #19 on:** January 05, 2014, 05:37:04 AM »

Not Hansgen.

D-type · « **Reply #20 on:** January 05, 2014, 04:25:42 PM »

A long shot - Don Hulette's Jaguar Special from 1960

grobmotorix · « **Reply #21 on:** January 05, 2014, 05:17:11 PM »

No, sorry.

nicanary · « **Reply #22 on:** January 06, 2014, 05:50:54 AM »

You say that underneath the body is a Jaguar. So what I now say is stupid, but I have to get it out of my mind - is the chassis a Kurtis?

grobmotorix · « **Reply #23 on:** January 06, 2014, 08:17:28 AM »

I do not think so.
But I´ll check when I´m back home.

Most of its mechanical parts and the engine are taken from a Jaguar XK.

grobmotorix · « **Reply #24 on:** January 06, 2014, 01:27:03 PM »

Now I´m quite sure that Kurtis parts were not involved.
