I'm pretty sure this is not a repost so for 1 point can you tell me the make, model, year & coachbuilder?

I've just noticed that it is an 8C 2600 not a 2300.
I'll change the title but SACO can keep his point.......

Thanks for that SACO - I admit I hadn't done the research on this particular car.

Again, make, type, year and by whom, please, for 1 point.

This one was already here as MJW #593 last year, and it is thus withdrawn..

It has been re-bodied as a Zagato Spider. It is sad to think the 1946 body may be lost.

Here are a couple more images of the lovely Vanden Plas body:
