That's the car, but it does have an actual name as well.
Locked for you to find it for your point (must be very easy!)

Sorry I am not sure I get it right.

A Fiat 1100T Ambulance 1964 by Mantelli, is this the right name? I found it on a previous autopuzzle

Damn - I didn't know it was a recent re-post..
Since you weren't here last time it was puzzled I'll give you the point and merge it.
There is another word which keeps appearing with pictures of this vehicle though and I've been unable to find out what it means or if it's a name..
Give me that word and your interpretation of it and I'll give you the point and merge the puzzle.

Sorry I don't get it.
Is the following the right answer?
Mantelli Fiat 1100T Hearse, 1964

Carnut · March 01, 2019, 11:03:24 AM

Well it's not the wrong answer!
All the words are right but there is another word which always appears in the captions and I don't know if it's part of the name or if it means something else. I can't find a translation of the word anywhere so I assume it's part of the name.
Since it's there on nearly all the photos on the internet it must appear when you look at the photos as well? I just want you to say what the word is (assuming it's part of the car's name).

It seems you can't find it then Vasilis?
That's odd because nearly all the pictures of this car that I can find on the Web call it a Mantelli Fiat 1100 T Corbillard (but sometimes 'Corbillard' is spelled with a small 'C' not a capital letter, hence my confusion over whether it's part of the car's name or not).
Does that word not appear when you pull up pictures of the car?
Any idea what it means? I cannot get a translation of it; when I try to translate it from French or anything else it gives me 'Corbillard' as an English word, which it isn't!
I'll give you the point and move this since you're new here but we do like to get to the absolute bottom of all questions and identifications here on AutoPuzzles, so I'd much rather you had come up with the missing word...

"Corbillard" is French for "hearse". As simple as that !

Carnut · March 03, 2019, 06:52:41 AM

Thanks!
I put it into Google translate - from French to English - and it gave me "corbillard" as an English word!!

vasilis1200101 · March 03, 2019, 05:25:33 PM

I am really sorry about this word. It didn't appear in my searches so I wasn't aware of it.
As far as I'm concerned about the points, I don't mind if I don't get one. I like to try solve these mysteries.
Thank you for your kindness though.

Carnut · March 03, 2019, 05:43:23 PM

I know you get different results according to which country you're searching from..
I gave you your point because you did identify the car correctly and anyway it turns out that you gave the full answer as 'Corbillard' meant 'Hearse' in French and you said 'Hearse' anyway!
Well done!
