Alpax? I only found a very short caption of a very fuzzy picture of the car so it was just a mere guess

My last guess is Ferrari. There's some info out there on Pepe Suarez and various iterations of the Beco, but I did not find this photo. So please unlock, if it's not a Ferrari

You say there is a Ford connection - is the engine by Cosworth ?
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia
