Antoine-Marie Chedru involved?

Paul Jaray

The name is Italian.  ;)
Not Antoine-Marie Chedru.

Arunas

Any famous constructor involved?


Arunas

Maybe some prototype by Luca Barnocchi?


Paul Jaray

I think my clue passed unnoticed: it's not a Dubonnet because it predates it of several years...but that car can lead you to the solution and they can be indeed related...

There are info about this car online too.
The man you are looking for was better known for his involvement with another manufacturer and its GP cars...

According to some sources, this project was probably known by Dubonnet  ;)

Paul Jaray

This car was designed few years before Dubonnet's car and its design was patented the year before the Dolphin appeared.
Its designer proposed his design to a well-known French make, that year....

Paul Jaray

Ok, let's get it solved!
This man is closely linked to 2 famous italian brands (and they are connected together)...one still alive and one is long gone but not too obscure.
I'll lock it for who will find the 2 brands...and they are quite easy!

Fiat & SPA?  If so, is the designer that we are looking for Michele Ansaldi?

Paul Jaray

Not Fiat & Spa or Ansaldi.

Lancia and Chiribiri?
