The car looks like a cross between a Lotus 11 and a dune buggy, and must be even lighter than a 260 Cobra.

Thanks for the comments.

Pete Lovely's Zoomer:

I know this car & it's (Only) second owner (I was allowed to sit in it), I also knew Pete.. It's known as the "Lovely" with a badge on the front. If you want the whole story on this one of a kind car. I can contact the owner, as he was a very good friend with Pete, and worked for him for years. I was shown the car, in the last 5-years, and never knew it existed, till then. I was at Pete's estate sale, and was allowed to buy many of his memorabilia, his racing history, is a great one. First winner at Laguna Seca, last Privateer F-1 team. on & on. Cheers Tom.
