Yes it is.
But I understand it to have a proper name of its own.
What is it?
Locked for you to find out, but in the meantime here's another picture of this car:

Silk purse from a sow's ear.

They did make some quite interesting sports models, against the odds!
The 1100 Spyder, on which this seems to have been based, has been puzzled here before..

Lock comes off this one tomorrow, when it is due to move up to the Pro's if dzima1985 doesn't reply...

These cars were designed by Ing F. Sajdl. Two additional coupé versions (1100 OHC Sport) were built in 1959.The engine was the same 1100 of the "Octavia", but modified with a new DOHC head, that gives a power of 92 hp.
It is a pity, but a proper name for 1100 OHC I didn't find...

Carnut · « **Reply #32 on:** July 24, 2012, 08:46:56 AM »

OK; I'll give you a point in due course anyway since you've found out what it is.
But there's another point going for this car's full name!
Open to all.

Carnut, thanks for interesting car and interesting puzzle!

woodinsight · « **Reply #34 on:** July 24, 2012, 09:48:13 AM »

Type 968?

Type 968?

Isn't that a Porsche?!
That one was already tried and I said it was wrong.
In fact I think I was wrong and it's right..
I regret to say I misread the caption to this car and dzima1985 has in fact solved the puzzle fully already - there is no other name..
My apologies!

Here's another picture to make up for it:

ŠKODA type 968. / 1957 - 1960/
in design Spider - made 2 piece
in design Coupé - made 2 piece
+ 1 Spider subsequently made of parts
so. ŠKODA 1100 OHC Coupé.

ŠKODA 1100 OHC Coupé.

That's what I put in the heading for my puzzle, but it's been merged with Djetset's puzzle of the same car, which has a slightly different heading hence the discrepancy.

I can change the heading, which I'll think about doing!

What is this? Make, model, place and year of production please for one point.

Skoda 1100 OHC coupe , developed between 1956 and 1959 , raced in 60 to 63 , international rule changes made the cars redundant

reconstuction of the 1100 OHC coupé body after Skoda bought some original mechanical partsof this car in 2014

Johno · « **Reply #43 on:** January 27, 2023, 06:19:35 AM »

Shamrock 2 and Hermanoto you both have elements of the answer I'm after but your answers are incomplete. Make - Yes Model - Yes place and year of production please for one point to fully answer. The race is on!

hermanoto · « **Reply #44 on:** January 27, 2023, 11:33:53 AM »

Two (original) coupés were built 19959/1960 after a design of Jaroslav kindl.
The reconstruction took place at the Worksmuseum and the Prototype Bau Centre at Mlada Boleslav, CS

Hermanato Correct one point for you. You seem to like my puzzles.

Johno · « **Reply #48 on:** January 28, 2023, 02:49:27 PM »

I can see why the puzzles have been merged but with this being a recent build it adds something to the previous puzzles.

Carnut · « **Reply #49 on:** January 29, 2023, 12:10:55 PM »

Yes, you're right.
Maybe it should be split again into two puzzles with this one described as a 2014 reconstruction model or some such?
