So hard to work out how big it is - it seems to have a disproportionately large steering wheel. It could also be pre-war methinks ... so is it a Citroen?

It's not a Citroen and I don't know the date of the engine, but the car was built post-war.

Peugeot?

YES. Swedish built and Peugeot-engined. Who built it?

Is it a self-build?

Its extraordinary how after hours of searching, merely putting the same words in a different order produces the result - it was one Stig Gruen who built it. I quote  "Chassis in aerospace steel and body in aluminum and the luscious rain number Z6000!!!!"

Well done. Perseverance as usual. I don't know how you found it, but it's from a Swedish-language site so not the first thing that crops up on a Google search.

Another point to you.
