Since the changes to our boards have taken place already I'm going to take the opportunity to solve one I've been waiting ages for!
This is surely an Ockelbo, a Ferrari Mondial 500 copy built in Sweden by Erik Lundgren?
It could have Volvo or Triumph or Austin-Healey power I believe.
And it later became the Pagano..

Indeed the car is that one, I only knew it was a swedish car but you have added a name to it and it's great.
What it's wrong is what it's based on... locked for you!

As well as Volvo this car could be based on  Saab, VW, DKW or Austin-Healey chassis as well.
It's actually been puzzled before and there's quite a bit written about it here:

Thanks.
I believe the car in the picture I posted was Alfa-based.
They must be Giulietta Sprint wheels?
