Disclaimer: I know next to nothing about 1960s cars :-D<p><i>Little is known about this concept, although the original Sunbeam Tiger is a popular classic V8 sports car that was designed by racing driver Carroll Shelby.</i><p>Maybe there's a connection? The rest of the rear looks nothing like it but the upper rear quarter-panel has a distinct notch shared by hardtops put on the AC Cobra (a.k.a. the <i>Shelby</i> Cobra) <i>and</i> the front of the car has Cobra-like "snout" and fenders.<p>This is total guesswork that smarter people could probably destroy in a heartbeat, but could it be a camouflaged prototype? The Cobra was prototyped (and being built at Thames Ditton) in early 1962 – <a href="https://www.supercars.net/blog/1962-ac-shelby-cobra-prototype/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.supercars.net/blog/1962-ac-shelby-cobra-prototyp...</a> – and the arches look oddly rough/plain in that photo. Could it be a prototype with the flared arches removed and a hardtop stuck on?
Pisthonheads forum has 124 pages long topic about it (started in 2015) <a href="https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=140&t=1555306&i=0" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=140&t=15...</a>
The Sun? Really? This should come with a NSFW link.<p>Also this just doesn't seem interesting at all. Is it really hard to believe someone made a car slightly different from mass produced models and that was caught on camera one time?
I acidentally mashed the flag button, sorry! I immediately unflagged, but its still marked.<p>I dunno what this is, but there are tons of older cars with a very similar body.

Outing homosexuals, hacking phones, warmongering, Hillsborough, AIDS misinformation, the list goes on. I wouldn't wipe my arse with it.
