Sorry, it is not a real license plate on the original picture, just two letters, of which I can't see a connection to the company.

Autoconstruzioni SD ?

[Wendax]

No, but the first word of its name starts with Auto...

[Paul Jaray]

Autotecnica del Lario?

[Wendax]

Almost, Autotecnic_ is the first part of the name.

[Paul Jaray]

Autotecnico?

[Wendax]

Yes, two more parts of the name are to be found.

[Wendax]

A car made for sunny weather moving to eternal darkness

[Wendax]

It is not Autotecnico, but Autotecnica.

[thorax]

is still active?

[Wendax]

I think so, but I am not 100 percent sure.

[oko94]

Autotecnica A & B ?

[Wendax]

No

[Djetset]

I guess the builder of this Golf is not mentioned in Alessandro's comprehensive book of Italian coachbuilders as yet?

[Wendax]

It is in his list, but without the Autotecnica part. 

[oko94]

As pretty much all coachbuilders in als' list are mentioned with their location, you should know be able to answer one of my previous questions : is the coachbuilder located North or South of Italy ?

[Wendax]

In the North of Italy

[oko94]

Is the coachbuilder located on the shore or inland ?

[Wendax]

As the picture suggests the coachbuilder is located in a coastal city.

[oko94]

Is the coachbuilder located in Genova ?

[Wendax]

No

[oko94]

Is the coachbuilder located on the Adriatic coast ?

[Wendax]

No
