1 point for you!

I think there is no doubt about the fact it's italian!   I supposed Fiat, but the hubcaps look like Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 ones...so I try this guess.

[Paul Jaray]

It is Italian.
Chassis is Fiat, engine is not. No Alfa parts that I know of.

[D-type]

Italian but not Fiat or Alfa engine, so is it Lancia powered?

Yes!

[oko94]

Did it appear in an Italian movie ?

[Paul Jaray]

I don't think so.

[oko94]

Made by an obscure Italian coachbuilder ?

[Paul Jaray]

All the names involved are totally obscure...

[targhediferro]

Aprile?

[Paul Jaray]

Not Aprile.

[pnegyesi]

is there any info online?

[Paul Jaray]

I couldn't find any.

[Paul Jaray]

The aluminum body was done by a coachbuilder from the north of Italy...not a known name either.
Buider's name: Xxxxx Xxxx, coachbuilder: Xxxxxx Xxxxxx.

It had a Lancia Aprilia engine built by Aldo Markt and a Fiat 1100 chassis and was bodied by Carrozzeria Stella Alpina of Bolzano, I believe in the late 1940s.

[Paul Jaray]

Let me guess...you find a certain letter in a certain magazine, don't you?

[Carnut]

No actually not!
I'll PM you where I got the answer from.
