Solved - MJW #282 - Grocott Jaguar 1959

[Djetset]

Exactly ten years ago today to the date, I stumbled across Auto Puzzles for the very first time whilst searching on-line for an obscure car (a Cisitalia 505 from memory). A decade on, this site has helped to further my car knowledge extensively, whilst also causing many hours of wasted frustration and only gaining a mere 44 points on average per year! I really must try harder 

So, to mark my 10th anniversary of joining Auto Puzzles today, I am offering a special two points puzzle here, with one point to name the creator of this rather hideous car, plus another point to correctly identify this car's base. Good luck.

Yes, it is the Grocott Jaguar by John Grocott, based on a Jaguar MKVII chassis, and built to Grocott's (unusual) design in Stoke-on-Trent, UK.

Well done, two points to you, and if this can now be merged please ( https://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/2011-39/solved-mjw-282-grocott-jaguar-1959/ ) as Wendax kindly pointed-out that this was a repost, despite it not showing-up on a Search when I looked originally. Thanks.
