Obscure engine identification quiz

I'll find something to send the correct answer.

Most will recognize the carb, but what engine is this and what car is it in?

Not British, it is air-cooled, it is a V8.

Man, I love me some Tatras... very interesting engineering, very interesting style. I've heard of Tracta, but never seen one! Good looking car... I really dig some of those european 30's cars..
