Name the car

[SGOxon]

Spotted this beauty in a independent workshop today amongst some other nice kit including 2 Astons, a Lambo Urracco, Lambo Countach, Ferrari 288GTO, Ferrari 458, Lambo Gallardo and a Murcielago. Oh and a Kombi with a Porsche engine

I found out a bit about this car as I didn't know what it was. Go on then, take a guess!

Is there supposed to be a pic?

As I can't see one, I'll take a guess. Hmm, something left field.

Purvis Eureka

Good blind guess Bibbs! WTF is a Purvis Eureka when it's at home? Oops too many glasses of wine when I posted, here is the pic

No idea about yours ..

I was just thinking of something that would "look" the part, and be Australian.

And then you mentioned the VW, and I think the Eureka had a beetle rear end.

Close enough Brisvegas and Redchina - good skills!

Ferrari 195 Ghia-Aigle 1951

I was told it is a one-off and haven't seen any other with the 3 'intakes' on the front wings on any other similar ones on the net.

Such an achingly beautiful car....
