By "local beauties" do you mean cemetaries or graves?

Something like Woodoo maybe?

I am not kidding. In the Philippines graveyards have become tourist attractions, I've read. So I thought this car had a demon face to scare off the ghosts there.

Not Woodoo (which one could be the Italian word for it?) someone was really close...

You may have found the actual duty for this car. Faksta got it right, it was a car for tourists, but your version sounds very ...solid.
The name should be a piece of cake now.

I'd say Devil Car.

Related to a fish then?

'Devil' is enough!
That's it.
The article says that this car is for the tourists that are without a car and want to visit the places near the capital and it is called 'il diavolo' , 'the Devil'.
250gto was really close, but the point is Ray's.
OK, well done, not a great piece of automotive history, but it was just for fun.
