OK, Ralf, you can calm down now. It's not your friend's car. On the information that I have recently received it could be an early TVR special fitted with RGS Atalanta body, not unheard of in the mid 50s, as Trevor Wilkinson used them on some of his earliest cars, although they were coupes rather than open. Could be an interesting find but will know more in due course.
