This is the Ghia-bodied Fiat P-850 Coupe from 1967
That's not the ID I have on file.
OK, so you must have it as the 1966 Fiat 850 Coupe by Caprera.
I'll send you the link I have by PM as think you don't like general links to be posted.
Seems it is maybe incorrect and the Caprera answer is the correct one.
Proves you can't always believe what you see/read!

That's what I have it as. Perhaps the inimitable Mr. Jaray can shed some light on this one?
From Quattroruote, December 1966 (Turin Salon issue):
How much was 1.150.000 lire back then? (in Euro today)
Those carrozzeria cars must have been amazingly expensive...

About 760 Euros I believe!!
To give you an idea, in the same magazine (12-1966), the price for a:
Fiat 500 Tetto Apribile (open top) was 475.000 Lire
Fiat 850 Coupe was 950.000 Lire
Autobianchi Primula Coupe was 1.190.000 Lire
Alfa Romeo Giulia 1300 Berlina was 1.295.000 Lire
Lamborghini P400 Miura was 7.700.000 Lire
Ferrari 365 Spider California 9.500.000 Lire
So, the Caprera 850 was sold for a rather reasonable price...
It was meant to...the text says: '...it will be on the market next year, at the end of February will start the delivery to the customers. It will cost 1.150.000 Lire.'
It never reached the production.
I know that the Caprera wasn't produced,
but always presumed that those Carrozzeria customs were incredibly expensive..
Remember once read about a Fiat 1100 Vignale (?) which cost new twice as much than a Jaguar E-Type..

From Quattroruote, December 1966 (Turin Salon issue):
There you have it.
At least one was sold:
It is it the same Caprera model?
Looks identical to me, apart from the wheels and minor badging differences?
More recent pictures of the car.
