It is a Phantom III as evidenced by the forward-mounted radiator grille and headlamps, in front of, as opposed to directly over the front axle, as the earlier models had. This was done to accommodate the larger V12 engine and increase passenger space at the same time. I would agree that it looks like a Hooper body. It looks like a car I recognise, but I can't remember the chassis no at the moment.
