Fellow autopuzzlers, for a point please tell me the name of this nifty little car, who built it, when and where.

Don't be naughty! Stay away from Google Search by Image, kids

No to both, BUT it was inspired by a toy car that imitated a 1930s car

It's the wheels I don't understand. Was this a road car?

el_monty · « **Reply #14 on:** July 23, 2016, 07:04:11 AM »

The car is not road-legal, it has only been used for dirt track racing.

Is it a "quarter midget" ?

nicanary · « **Reply #16 on:** July 23, 2016, 02:50:55 PM »

Is it a homebuilt car, or was it made by a regular constructor?

No. It's not a kid's car. It does use a similar kind of engine, though
