Could it be a 1942 Alfa Romeo 6C2500 Super Sport with body by Pinin Farina? Completed in 1946.

Yes , Alfa Romeo 6C2500 Super Sport with body by Pinin Farina !
Why " Completed in 1946 " ?

Alfa Romeo produced 28 6C2500 SS chassis during the war. I think Alfa Romeo built at least 6 cars on those chassis for military officials during the war.

Pinin Farina created this car for industrialist Arturo Fumagalli. Front suspension design was licensed from Porsche.

I don't have an absolute answer, why it was finished in 1946. Other than, they waited until the WWII was over?

And a photo with the hood up.
Is that picture in reply #13 the same car, as it doesn't have the trim strip above the sills or the (indicator?) lights on the front?
