Hope this doesn't upset Otto.
Cocky as I am I simply copied his idea. So I do apologize in advance.

Who made this drawing for which company and for what model?

He's from Italy, but he isn't Paolo Martin.

The make isn't German, but the manufacturer is. ;)


Interisting that most of the internet sources provide wrong facts concerning the car designer.
Even more interisting/confusing that the final car was from a different brand, but from the same manufacturer.. :D

So, the make is not from UK, Italy or Germany, but the manufacturer is German...but the final model was made for another brand of the same manufacturer.
Is it a French make?

No, it's not French.
Would you like to see the final car or at least a cropped image?
But note that it's not the car/make that I'm actually after...

In 1965 Karmann built a car on a VW Beetle base, that looked pretty much alike... It was designed by Hans A. Muth....
