There are obvious design elements of both the Cheetah and Kellison Astra (K4?), and the tail is certainly influenced by Bill Mitchell's Mako Shark of the mid-1960s. The rear deck even looks a little like the Cobra Daytona Coupe. or Iso. Someone was pretty creative with their "plagurisms"
A search of vintage kit car sites turned up some truly awful looking "sports" cars. This looks to be fairly sophisticated, though.
