It's an Austrialian Bolwell Nagari and it has a Ford V8 (quite obvious) in front so no: no Dino DNA in this one. They didn't sell very well (just over 100) but I'm not sure why not, probably because it's creator was just too small and primarily focused on producing the cars instead of things like marketing/reliability to become very profitable.

Ya, Im tired, my facts get jumbled when sleepy. Im just glad I got the "didnt sell well" part right, It proves Im not totally losing it.

Looks like a Bolwell. It's prettier than many other similar cars produced in low numbers.

Any idea what powered the rest of the Bolwells? They all look pretty similar but only Nagari seems to use Ford V8.

It is. A Bolwell Nagari. The first 'production' car as the first Bolwells mainly were kit-cars. And I really love the look of it, except for the vents on the side and the enormous bubble on the bonnet maybe.

Well, 'didn't sell well': Bolwell at first only sold kits so it's not that bad I suppose.

Indeed the first Bolwells came with primarily Holden components. That way the owners could easily have their cars maintained down under. The engine was a X2 6 cylinder Holden for the MKVII, which was Bolwell's best-seller.
