Close! but this make may not be called a Ferrari , but you are looking in the right direction
Hi Oguerrerob!
don't you think a F1 car of 1952, with covered wheels and windscreen like that, with 2 seats and lights would be a bit ..odd?
C'mon, you can't be serious on this, and the knowledge you already showed is a proof.
If you google your answer you'll see what I mean!

I ment the Ferrari part.......although that is not the make of the car

Yes! that is the car.
When Enzo Ferrari left the race department of Alfa Romeo in 1939, where he was president, he was not allowed to build any cars under the name Ferrari for a period of four years.
He started the Auto Avio Costruzione company in Modena with the intention to produce tool machines.
Still, he problably could not help himself and by the design of Ing Alberto Massimino was this car built.
Because of the contract with Alfa this car does not carry the name Ferrari but Auto Avio.
You have earnt your point.
The first point I´ll have to award here, so hopefully this will work
Hmmmm :(this is not going so well. sorry Oguerrerob. seems I have some figuring out to do

All you need to do is click on '[add]' underneath the word Puzzle under his name.
You can take away too if you add too many by mistake.
Nice puzzles!
Yeah, I thouth I was going blind looking for the button :-[
Thanks! ;)
I found a couple of nice info about Auto Avio Costruzioni that I'm sharing on my FB page.
For all of you that are interested, here you are:
1st pic shows what seems to be a flyier for a production model (called Torpedino Tipo Brescia) that is slightly different from the race version.
2nd pic shows Touring's scale model of the Coupe version, never realized.
In addition to these, there's also a drawing showing a different front for a planned Cabriolet version.
