I'm not sure it did have an official name. It was designed by a chap who had worked in the special bodies department of Fiat called Michele Fasana in 1957 as "his" car. Subsequently it has been dubbed the Fasana Toplino Spider.

can you tell if it was built as an art car project, or just an unusual one-off such as the netik 600? just curious.
