Title: Solved - NEH 1821: Serenissima Torpedo Competizione - 1966
Post by: Carnut on May 11, 2012, 07:42:08 AM
What's this car and from when does it date?  For 1 point:

Google Search by Image continues to raise its ugly head on AutoPuzzles.
For the sake of our newer members who may not be aware of past discussions on it, Google Search by Image as a means of solving puzzles is banned on this website.

AutoPuzzles is primarily a game of automotive knowledge, not of who can copy and paste the quickest.

We ask all members to remember and respect this, and retain the right to ask puzzle-solvers how they came to their answer.

Have fun!

It's not a real Ferrari 250 LM, is it?

Is it supposed to look like one, i.e a replica?

No, it's a car in its own right.  Nothing to do with Ferrari.

That's it, yes.
And here's a front view; the closed version the Serenissima Jet is rather better known.

This pic shows the car in its 1965 state. Here's the front-view shot in Turin 1966 that fits the puzzle car:
