Paganelli?
It's not denial, I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.

The assumption is wide of the mark however!

Sorry, I should be clearer in my mother tongue - it's neither French nor German  ;)

I believe I've seen it before, on another photo...  :-\ but I can't remember when and where. Is it European at all? Or we'll waste much time trying every European country and will finally find out it's not from there...

This is the (very nice indeed) Fitch Whitmore Le Mans Special a Jaguar-based from the father of the Fitch-Bitch and the Phoenix.

In this case it has just reminded me of something, because I can't say I've heard of this name before...
