Mercury engined Cisitalia 808 XF with Ghia body.

Strange thing about the car: I have it as Cisitalia 505 DF (1953) as well!  :scratch:

The puzzle's car is the 808 XF.
The 505 DF was the same body adapted for Fiat 1900 mechanicals. The only visible difference is (dimensions apart) the trim on the hood.

...and obviousely the missing side trim.

Thanks for the info!


EDIT:

The shape of the vents and hood ornaments seems to be slightly different as well!
