It's a fairly accurate description of the vehicle but there are a couple of minor plus one major detail missing!
Locked for you to dig into and see if you can provide the complete answer.

The only other information that I can find is that it's Number 926954, and judging by the badge on the back was coachbuilt by a company starting in an F. I'll go ahead and guess Figoni & Falaschi because I'm out of leads. If this is incorrect, please unlock.

OK, I'll unlock it.
There's no Figoni & Falaschi involvement but there is information regarding its full name, its base and its origin still awaited.

OK, it's time for the Pro's to sort this one out; should take less than 5 minutes...

Alfa Romeo Barchetta 2500 6C Derivata Barchetta Corsa Evocation, chassis : Fiat 1100 GILCO, engine : 1949 2500 6C Alfa Romeo

A modern evocation of the Italian specials from the forties and fifties.

[Carnut]

Yes, that's the whole point.
Although using an original engine and Gilco chassis this is not an old car but a modern interpretation of the cars of those day!
Well done.
