Whatever it is, looks like it has TR6 taillights.

Look at the fit and finish. It must be Brit, or Italian.

With no badging, it has the feel of a kit car.

It's a Tiberius 290. They only made 7 of them.

With the visible panel gaps, and rear bumper grime, I would name this car a "Hot Mess" !

All the TIB290's ran really rich but the '07's were the worst.

I'm hoping Tiberius wins their lawsuit against TVR, personally. I drive #6 and Raul Julia said it best-

Here is the only Tiberius290 in coupe form. Of the seven originals, OP's roadster and this coupe are all that remain. Termites took the others.

So all you need is a sacrificial TR-6 and the kit to make one.

I have a 69 and 75 TR6. If I recall correctly the 69 gas cap closed with a magnet. That wouldn’t help much, in a rollover/crash.
I think the 75 had a latch. |
