I don't know that car in that livery.

I would say that the circuit is either Croft or more likely Aintree in Liverpool

It looks like a S3 Vixen / tuscan V6 body, Cannot tell whether the manifolding is 3 collector or 4 !! its a typical modsports affair of the mid 70's, I would estimate the photo to be about 76 - 77

Looks like a V6 manifold and Thruxton perhaps?

I'd lob Castle Combe into that as well (especially with those distant hills and the banking

I suspect its Ed Stevens Tuscan V6. Never knew it in this livery but used to be far less radical and was sponsored by Alpine Double Glazing in 1974. The pic looks like Castle Coombe but as a northener haven,t been there too often to be sure.
Tuscan V6,s were all the vogue in the 70,s in club racing and were constant championship winners. Others included Brian Hough,Chris White, Maurice Gates and John Palmer(no not that one! )
