- The builder is still in business;
- the builder has a garage/shop in Veneto (where this car was built);
- the builder has worked for a carrozzeria in Bassano (not Casale), but is not in business as a coachbuilder at his own garage/shop; and
- this car is still with the builder.
Thanks!

Thiene? Carrozzeria Centrale?
The builder of this car worked for a Carrozzeria from Bassano, not Thiene o Centrale.
Early 60s he left that Carrozzeria and set up his own officina nearby (R______ ______ is the place).
The car changed hands few times.
I have no record of the original builder today and a search under his name gave no results (even if the surname seems to be quite common in that area).
