Experts?
Fiat based?
Definetely!
Fiat 1400 Gazzella by Boneschi?
No.
No, definitely not: just a stupid guess based on the (wrong) memory and without my archive.
Perhaps a 1100 by Savio?

Not an 1100, but you're tantalizing close.
Locked for you till your next reply.
If not an 1100 and not an 1400 it could be one of the latest 6-cylinder Fiat 1500. Year 1949-1950.
Yes, a 1500 from 1949! Do you know its complete name? Still locked for you!
Sorry for the late reply, but I needed my archive to double check and I wasn't in Italy...
I've it as a 1500 "berlina panoramica" by Savio.
'Panoramica' is new for me, but the rest corresponds with the infos I have.
The point is yours!
Great.
"Berlina" only means "saloon" and it's a quite general definition. "Panoramica" at that time was often used to underline the large windows area: "panorama" in Italian means landscape. Only later panoramica got the same meaning of station-wagon.
Just to complete the info, my source is a feature on Auto Italiana magazine, talking about the 1948 model (only with minor differences in the trims).
Perhaps may you post me this one in bigger size by PM?
I know the meaning of "Panoramica", but I was surprised as this car has a rather conventional window size.
I would send you a bigger pic, but I already enlarged the one you see in the first post :-\.
The only thing I could do is to PM the fuzzy Savio ad I have.

Perhaps they refer to the very thin (for that time) pillars, at least compared with the standard car.
