I thought it might be a repost, and tried several variations of spelling, but I don't want to say any more because it might give clues about the builder's nationality.

Sorry to spoil your plans!

A full answer. It consisted of a Ford Model A engine in an adapted Ford Model T chassis.

I posted this puzzle at the same time as a later special built by Stroem was also posted by another AP member. I thought that someone would therefore have solved it earlier.
