Completely wrecked, and still worth more than my car. |

Correct---a NEW 2012 Hindustan Ambassador Classic Yet!!
"...in India you can still buy a vintage car brand new, like the 2012 Hindustan Ambassador Classic. Yes it's based on a 1948 Morris Oxford, but that's why we like it. Simple, cute, wonderful. It also costs less than $9,000." |

I'm guessing a Porsche 1500 Spyder variant, built for a record attempt at Reims. Perhaps only 1100cc? |
Can we have a confirmation, Scopey?

The pic is reversed. It's actually a left hand drive American car.

I reversed it so maybe you pirates wouldn't try to picture match it......... 
I originally saw this car while surfing the TV, it was a project on "Fast and Loud."
They said something about less than 10 made.
Had a flathead Ford in it.
Sounded pretty cool.
