The base car (make and model) is fairly obvious, but who built/commissioned this variant. and where?

No interest from the Rookies so it's up to the Experts.

No interest from the Experts - not even in the obvious base car. What do the Pros make of it?

Can the solution, or the photo, be found on the internet or do you need a relevant book/magazine archive for the solution?

I found it on Facebook. I doubt it is elsewhere on the 'net and certainly not in any book or magazine.

Looks like a small circuit in UK. Am I right?

No, it's not in the UK. That's why I will accept just the country for the "Where?".

Australia?

Not Australia

Doh! I was so slow. Of course it'll be East Africa.

It's the Sprite of Werner Alvers racing at Nakuru. FYI the Cooper is driven by Derek Gates.

That's it!
And to make it easier I didn't even blank out the registrations

Not everyone on here knows your personal background

PS I'm not a points chaser any longer, but could you do the necessary?
