Who can say what this car's name is, and where it comes from?

Ecosse - South African sports car powered by a Cosworth 4-cylinder 1.9 litre normally aspirated engine. Entered by Jack Holme Racing in the 1974 Kyalami 7 hr race - driven by Keith Berrington-Smith and Tony Martin, the Ecosse finished 10th out of 11 finishers.
