I don't know what this vehicle is exactly but it looks to have a side valve V8 engine fitted with Ardun overhead valve heads. The grille looks to be made with pieces from a circa 1948 Mercury. Maybe the design was influenced by the British Allard.

I just wrote Ford because of the Ford logo on the side.
I have no idea what it is either and the plate isn't visible.

It looks like the racing special nicknamed ’Snøhvit’, built by Greger Strøm at the Fram Motor Company of Oslo, Norway, in 1948. The engine they used was a Ford V8.

Are we gonna make it
1948 Fram Snøhvit or
1948 Strøm Snøhvit?

So,
1948 Snøhvit Ford,
do we all agree with this?

Isn't Ford Snøhvit more appropriate?

Referred to in your link as a Fordracer.

To me, it's just as, like, Lotus Ford.

Except here Snøhvit isn't the make of a chassis but the nickname of the car
So either Ford 'Snøhvit' or Custom Made Snøhvit Ford ...

Or maybe Fram or Strøm? It is built by Greger Strøm at the Fram Motor Company of Oslo, Norway
Ford is just the engine. The grill is a Mercury.
