Please tell me what you can about this car. When was it built, and who is sitting in the car?

Is the driver a South African man who eventually entered at least one Formula 1 race ?

The driver pictured in the car is a later owner, and did not build the car. Both men are from South Africa, but did not race at F1 level.
