Not built in Europe, but there is some European content.

Not from the Antipodes, I'm afraid.

America?

Yes. It was built in America using a European engine. So what is it?

richard fridd · « **Reply #14 on:** September 15, 2015, 01:22:29 PM »

Four cylinders?

frederick59 · « **Reply #15 on:** September 15, 2015, 06:27:29 PM »

Zink-VW?

nicanary · « **Reply #16 on:** September 15, 2015, 07:11:21 PM »

It is not VW powered, so not a Zink. I do not know the exact number of cylinders, but it would be either 4 or 6. Looking at the photo, I'd say most probably 4.

It is Porsche engined. The chassis is not from a well-known race car maker.

That's the date I have on my records.

In my search I came across a few pics with the same sort of background / setting, and finally there it was : Denmacher-Porsche II driven by John Dennis.
