I think that's Alec Issigonis in his reworked Ulster.

Yes, Issagonis and I agree with Alan...it need replicating.

Brilliant, so who is going to build it? Masses of time to get it finished by 3rd July.

Is it long or short wheelbase? What do you think?

SWB, more pictures would help any prospective builder, I already have far too many projects on but agree with you Alan it would be well worthy of replication.

Talking of replicas, anyone yet know where OK7095 is to be found? Hiding in a shed, being meticulously prepared for demonstration later this year?

He had (or at least drove) a few Austin 7s, I've got pictures of him driving a GE Cup at Brooklands.

The only image I have (I think) of this car is when it was still an Ulster is this one:
