Faralli & Mazzanti Vulca S, from 2009

2011 Aquila Italiana Diva GT ？

Interesting. It appears the Vulca was renamed and repurposed to become the Aquila Italiana revival vehicle, I didn't know that. From the badge on the bonnet it's obvious that Dowdeswell got the identity correct.

And the point goes to Dowdeswell for the correct answer.

This puzzle raises a technical question.  There is a very good chance, that only one F&M Vulca S exists, and it was later modified to become the only Aquila Italiana Diva GT.  Does this mean this puzzle should be merged with Carnut's Vulca S puzzle?  Two body panels were modified, as F&M badges were removed, along with the indents they sat in on the front and rear of the car.  The Aquila Italiana web site shows bare-metal photos of their car being built, and you can see the original F&M indent on the rear of the car.

I wouldn't merge them, a link to its alter ego is just fine: http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/2009-37/solved-neh-102-faralli-mazzanti-vulca-s-2009
