Title: MJW #829 - Unidentified car spotted in Italy in the 1970s
Post by: woodinsight on January 08, 2012, 10:29:18 AM

I found this strange car on my HD and remembered that I'd taken the photos of it back in the 1970s.
I haven't a clue what it is or what it was based on.
Any ideas? A point awaits for someone who can solve this mystery.

I'm transferring this one to the BH which means that 2 points are now available for a positive iD.

Hideous!...but the wheels have a suggestion of Panhard Dyna X, and the front end seems to be an attempt at the Dynamique.  Either way, someone should have shot the one who built it.  Hanging would have been only a tad too brutal.

I beg to differ - hanging and for that matter shooting would both have been a tad too kind.  How about Top Gear 24 hours a day whilst suspended by the thumbs?
