May be you can help me ! John Simpson said also that the car had a Maguire rear axle, the complete back panel is alloy, bonded and riveted and the roof is fiberglass , also the door skins are alloy , a really lightweight body shell full of holes ,also in the inner sills !

Hi,
The car you have is not a Maguire car, it certainly looks ex Bernstein but is likely to be the car he used prior to running the spaceframe Maguire car, (see post #59 in this thread).
His cars were always immaculate and very well engineered, he was also a very capable pilot.
