What is this?
1 point for you!
(I don't know the answer anymore but I suspect it won't take much!)

Happy new year
Alfa Romeo base?
The stering Wheel seems to have been borrowed from the car on the left :D

I took this pic myself in Padova ..last year.
I didn't ask for info because I thought I recognized it.
Once home I did not had the time to look for it and my memory just keep telling me: 'You have it somewhere...'
Unfortunately none of the above would be of any help, and I don't know if it's an Italian etceterini or not  :-\

I also took pics at Padova, but there were no badges on the car and no signs to tell you what it is...

I have found another picture of this car on the web but unfortunately without any information whatsoever...

Wheels (Fergat), Steering, and lenght, look like Fiat 500 A based one off.

Paul Jaray

I hope it will be at Padova this year again. I'll try to get more info.
In the meantime, Black Hole!

I guess this didn't make it back to Padova this year?
A car is for life, not just for Christmas.

 :disbelief:
Unfortunately it didn't.

Somewhere I took a photo of the phone number of this car's owner - will PM you, PJ!


Paul Jaray

Here's the car...a little bit older.
I finally found out the builder (probably).

Allemano

The year is 1950 and it was recently sold...

Paul Jaray

You won't find the name very easily...the ad is online, but with no info  ;D

Initials P.O.?

Paul Jaray

I missed your question, sorry.
There is a carrozzeria behind it.
Owner's initials are B.G.
There is another car, built by them from a Fiat 508C, quite impressive.
These info are hard to find (and to verify) but I've received some first hand confidences.

Paul Jaray

Time to solve it?
I leave good lead in each and every post I write.
Do not want to self promote my FB page, but actually that is the only place where you can find the answer.
It won't be so straightforward, but you have all you need here (and there!).
More clues if needed. ;)

Is the name Beta ...?

Paul Jaray

Not Beta. It was built by a small 'carrozzeria', but not officially. It's been proposed and sold as something else and in these cases the builder's name is kept secret. I found it after a long search and many phone calls. The same carrozzeria made another car, this time based on a 508c and it's quite nice. Featured here before, I don't think with the correct name, but I could be wrong and I could have commented there as well reporting the right name.
