Do you know this car?
One point for correct identification.
(I have few details about but I suspect it won't be that hard)

I have the donor car for this and it is not french.

That rear looks a bit Daimler-like,so my question is it British?

Paul Jaray

The donor car is not british...

guido66

But the conversion / coachbuilding was done in the UK?

Paul Jaray

I don't know.
It was for sale, soon after it was built in an european country, that is not French or British, but I can't tell if the builder was from there or just the owner.

The front has a bit of Volvo, so my question is: Sweden?

Paul Jaray

The donor was not Swedish...

Difficult to say if it is not of one of these countries, so I am going to say Spanish.

Paul Jaray

You are leaving out a big portion of the globe, but no, not Spanish...

You said yourself it was a European country (05:11:11).

Switzerland?

The roof line looks a little like PF's design for the Lancia Flaminia. Is there any connection?

My replies #2-4-8-10 were: donor car is not ....
My reply #6 was: It was for sale, soon after it was built in an european country, that is not French or British, but I can't tell if the builder was from there or just the owner   
In my reply #6 I was referring to the conversion\coachbuilder: the donor car is another matter (and not European) and quite known.

Not Lancia...

Allemano

USA for the based car?

Then I misunderstood. Sorry about that

Paul Jaray

Nothing to be sorry about, sometimes I know I'm a bit cryptic...
This car was built around another car, the donor car, that was built not in Europe and comes from a well known brand.
The body was done later by someone I do not know: I only know that it was for sale in a country in Europe, none of the mentioned, but it doesn't necessarly mean that the coachbuilder was from there.

Yes, the donor car was from USA.

Allemano

reminds me a bit of the "Bill Frick" Cadillac conversions..

Paul Jaray

Not a Cadillac, but I thought of him too...
