1962 Fiat 1500 Osca Vignale Coupe http://www.classiccarsforsale.co.uk/classic-car-page.php/carno/37467
though another source states 1960 (white coloured car with seemingly longer wheelbase)
Also the name 'Salon di Milano' is mentioned, but guess that's not its real name.

Yes this is Vignale's take on the Fiat 1500. This particular example seems to have Osca mechanicals. My info is that the original )Michelotti-designed) 1500 Coupe appeared at the 1959 Salone di Turin, but a slightly simplified version (as pictured) entered production in 1960.  :)

In general those Fiat OSACs are only tuned or modified with OSCA components contrary to the 'real' OSCAs' like this one:
