1934 Ford Hotrod

I took this photograph in the paddock at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in August 1996.
There's nothing about the car in the programme but it's a Ford Hotrod, and presumably a 1934 model judging by the number on the bonnet - I've not been able to find out anything else about it. On the door of the car are a chequered flag and a Finnish flag and the words 'Oscar's Early Ford Autosalvage' and 'Köklax City'. The registration plate JTP•34 appears to be a Swedish plate, and Köklax is the Swedish name for the Kauklahti district of Espoo which is Finland's second largest city and is about 15 km from Helsinki.
