Who built this car? Was it carrozzeria Michelotti?
The logo on the front wing looks like the one from Canta.

TBH this one's a bit of a mystery - anyone have any more info?

Another view of the car when it was for sale in the 1970s -

Oh, and by the way I believe the year should be 1956

Thanks! I've never seen another pic than the first one!

I would have said 1956 is a bit too early for those headlights; unless the car was modified later?

Not sure if it was modified later.
