Identify the marque, model (I'm not sure of this), year and coachbuilder for a point.

Is the base car German?
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Yes Ray, well found!

Thank you.  I've gotten behind with things and had almost resigned myself to not catching up for a month (which still might happen), so it was nice to see that this one was correct.  I remembered seeing it on one of the books on my shelves and it didn't take long after I remembered which book.  :)

It is an almost unbearably bad effort from the side of the coachbuilder... :o

I agree.
When I first saw it I thought there must have been something wrong with the camera lens as it looks so distorted....
Presumably the car no longer exists or has been rebodied.
I wonder if there are any other views?
