What's the make and model designation of this car?

It looks almost like a Fiat 118 with a different front design, but if you look closely, some other details such as rear wheelarch and tailfin have slightly different proportions too. So maybe a Pininfarina prototype for the 118 Spider?

Could this be a Monterosa proposal for a Fiat 1100 Spyder?

Those are both good guesses but not the answer ...

Is it even Fiat based?

1958 Siata '170S' or '1700' (depending on the source) and indeed based on a Fiat (1400)

Sorry for coming back to an already solved puzzle, but I've a question?
Why do you call it "Siata-Abarth"? I know the 170S as the last Siata model before its first financial crack. The short Siata-Abarth adventure began one year later with an offer of only 4 Fiat 600-based model, as far as i know. No Abarth parts should be in the 170S.

Thanks,

Alessandro.
