That's because that is exactly what it is! Portuguese Race car driver and builder Eduardo Ferreirinha, who would later go on to be the founder of Edfor, sold an old Turcat-Mery from the 20s and a modified Ford Model A to a fellow racing driver, Eduardo Carvalho, and by joining the chassis of the French car and the powertrain of the Ford, with a new body to wrap it all in, Carvalho made this special. However, it was outdated, slow and prone to mechanical problems, and he never achieved any successes with it, but it is sometimes called "the first Portuguese car" (even though its components came mostly from abroad)
