What a strange contraption. Is it a single seater with a side-car grafted to it ?

It's from the USA. It's a dirt/sprint racer fitted with an Alfa Veloce engine and that sidecar!

..and this is a photo of this Alfa-engine oddity.
So I'll lock it for nicanary to answer the other question asked initially..

The source is titled "Alfa Sprint Car 1+1" and the car was located at South Lake Union, which appears to be a suburb of Seattle.

Actually I meant in my picture not yours!
You'll get your point anyway having traced the car but I was after the event it was pictured at in the puzzle picture..

Was it the "open house" of Close Enough Engineering?

(Your image does not appear anywhere on my search engine as far as I can tell - was it from  the dreaded twitface?)
