Is it a one-off or the product of one of the many 'etceterini' (the small scale manufacturers of Fiat-based sports and racing cars)?

Merged.

Well done 727 - you're an Expert now, which means you can post your own puzzles! But on the other hand it means you can't answer Rookie puzzles anymore..

You did a great job finding this one.
At first I remembered it just as sitting on the roof of a building in New Zealand but couldn't trace it at all, even though I remembered which website it was pictured on.
Then when I remembered it had been puzzled before and found the answer I was still unable to find it anywhere on the 'Net - even with the full answer! I even tried to find it using Search by Image but that came up with nothing either.
So you did remarkably well.
