I'm confused, but acknowledge that that state of mind isn't unusual for me these days.

I don't recognise it as a Brooklands car - is it French?
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Not French but it is probably based on a French car.

Does this mean that the donor car is not known ?

It is supposed to use a particular engine, but I do not know for sure.
That engine is from a French car.

Proprietary engine, or from a well-known race car maker?
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

I think this car is still out there.
The builders are not obscure names after all, but this is the only car they built.

Are the builders known for other types of vehicles than cars (motorbikes, planes, boats...) ?
