If it is it has no connection with the name or maker of the car..

I found it, at last!

It's a Parisotto Fiat 750 Sport from 1952 (chassis #5062652).

Engine is a Fiat 750cc with a Siata B type head (is the "s" on the side grill connected to "Siata"?). That particular car is one of a series of 9 cars. It raced the Mille Miglia in 1952 (number 2400), driven by Gino d'Angeli with co-driver A. Gasparini (did not finish).

OK.
But - you still need to tell me who actually built the car for your point!
Locked for you to go back to the drawing board!

Here is some more: :)

It was based on a tubular frame built by Armando Pasqualin and the car was assembled in the workshop of Cesare Rizzato located in Padova.

By the way, what a lovely car!

Here's a photo of this car at the start of the Mille Miglia. The car is presently being advertised for sale at a well-known Belgian dealer.
