Re-bodied in the U.S.A., on a chassis from the 1930s ?

Nothing American about it. It might be a rebodied 1930's car though, not exactly sure about it.

Yes, it is an HRG, probably a slightly modified Aerodynamic. The picture was not taken in Belgium and not in 1948.
Locked for you.

Please unlock, as I cannot find more on this! Perhaps the scene is Geneva, or Bern;....and, no doubt, the vehicle in the background would have provided another clue. Intriguing :tasty:

The puzzle is still locked, and we have already found out that it is an HRG.

Is it a circuit race or a hillclimb?  (In Britain we don't call hillclimbs "races" as the cars run one at a time)
