I've no idea.  I know it isn't a Lotus, Lola or U2, and thanks to the 750 Formula there are just so many Austin Seven based specials that searching is well nigh impossible.  So please unlock this so that those who know the genre better than me can have a go.

A7 Wooden Special, built by David King "man of steam". He said it would never be scrapped but it might "go for firewood"
