It’s in the inner notes of The Carpenters Greatest Hits CD so that must be Richard Carpenter.

The picture is too small to read any of the writing.

I’ve googled a few guesses but I can’t really think of what it could be.

Have just Googled the reg plate and "Ferrari" and Wikipedia says this:
The car pictured on the cover is Richard's 1973 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 ("Daytona"). He later sold the car, but bought another of the same type in 1995.[citation needed]

Karen Carpenter was the best female signer ever. And there's been plenty of competition, with loads of brilliant singers, usually fantastic black American women who came out of the gospel choir tradition. But Karen was miles better than any of them.

Take a look at it from the front and then say that.
