I have been delving through my archives, and came across this beasty which raced at LM.

Briggs Cunningham.  1950.  Cunningham Cadillac engined 'Le Monstre'.

I saw it run at the Goodwood FoS a few years ago.

Here it is a Goodwood FoS.

Spot on Steve - hole in one.

The same year, he also ran a standard Cadillac 62 saloon with 5.4-litre engine with modified carbs, stiffer shocks and better brakes.  Miles & Sam Collier drove the saloon to 10th overall, and Cunningham and Phil Walters drove Le Monstre to 11th place.

noy bad for such an ugly car!

It does look like its a prototype for "Thunderbirds".  One of the little pieces of LM history
