It is definitely the back. With avon tyres on, I suppose its British. Or else I would have said Formula Mazda or Formula Atlantic.

Non of Formula mazda or Altlantis( open body ) as it\'s a closed body eg "Tiga GT" type, (see the fire wall in front of the  front mount engine at the rear end!) is the  driver\'s Co*kpit.

think glen posted some stuff about these ages ago. They used to be on his personal website. The oldstyle starter location is interesting, I suppose it\'s just to do with the box as it\'s not an early engine as it\'s only got one dizzy.

Been googling on the net - Mazda apparently supplied a 10A lump for a Chevron B16 for 1970 LeMans.  That engine does look quite small as well.
