Im stuck on this one. Got a few images in my head but no names to match. Dont think theyre right anyways. I bet its something silly that i should know!

All im getting is Early 70's although most stuff like that had started to get square by then.

It looks very kit / prototype-ish think

The front lights look very poorly mounted for a production car.

Is it a modified version of a production car? Initial thoughts where Mini Marcos, but they had square lights... think

Ill give you all the answer now, as I think its gone on long enough.

The car is a Ford GT70, a sportscar designed to compete in rallying, but it was a huge failure, and Ford stuck with the Mighty Escort
Similar in shape to the Ford GT40.. but obviously much smaller.
happy
