AAllan Maripuu form Estonia like to find out about this mystery racer. Last owner is under the impression it was built in the east block, possibly, the Soviet Union. The car has no engine and is missing some suspension parts. Allan was not able to find any information about it.

Editor:  Well Alan, at least it is clear that it is a rear engined car. The nose is spectacular but also quite common for an end of fifties, early sixties racing car. The rear end is more characteristic. Also the chassis and old fashioned front suspension with transverse leaf spring should help. A very intersting car. Let's see what you people come up with.

UPDATE by Stuart Penketh:Could this be a Tartu 1 from the early 60's.
The Tartu 1 was a Cooper Monaco clone, “built in 1963-1964, using parts from Volga Gaz-21 (engine) and gearbox from ZAz-965.”
