USA, 1960ish. Same builder also constructed a small biplane and Formula One racer, both of own design.
Sadly the pictured aircraft was lost in a crash 1972.
 
Hi Pomme Homme:encouragement:
No Cassutt relationship (AFAIK) . I think the subject aircraft may have been more for aerobatics than air racing.
However, the Formula One racer by the same designer DID strongly resemble a Cassutt.
 
The aircraft is the Lowers B.I.R.D (aka as Bluebird) by Jack Lowers of NC.
Registration N591T, Completed 1964 and lost in fatal crash 15 June 1972 (NTSB)

Open House please. Grab the invitation:jump:
 
Open house, open frame?
