No clues there, just my neater-than-usual attempt at blotting out the plates. (Why do we do that anyway, you can see any number you like just driving down the road?)

Absolutely correct! Though I think that Google makes things a bit too easy sometimes.
Another picture, which I deliberately didn't use, as it starts to give the game away...........
Incidentally, having seen this car in the flesh, it's not just a 3000 sliced down the middle with 6" added in.....it's a tad wider everywhere, a genuine example of the coachbuilders' art.

wow - really cool car - never heared about it
the wider body makes it look better than the 3000
although, the article tells us that there were only 6 prototypes built
