Its very very small. Loooks like a centrally mounted seat and steering wheel, its got me stumped as to what it is. Search on the small italian coachbuilders, it has only one wing mirror on the left, so has been built to be driven on the right hand side when on the road.

I am not 100% sure, but I am fairly sure it is actually a Porsche.......

I think it may be one of the Porsche Abarth Carreras built in the 60's, they had different body styles, but a lot of the styling cues are similar to some of the other Abarth Carrera's and this also explains the Italian look. But if you look at the shape of the badge and other details such as the shape of the lights and grille they are racing Porsche of that period. (I think!)

Looks like a generic kit car based on all sorts of odd ball designs.


Also looks like fiat wheels to me ??

The wheels are IMHO Campagnolo alloys, as used by many Italian manufacturers including Fiat, Ferrari and Maserati. That was one of the clues that makes me think it is one of the Abarth Porsche's.

If you look at the lines it has an Abarth look about it
