The mechanicals are Austin (Princess?) and the bodywork is Bertone. Don't have a name.

That is, unfortunately, a definite 'no' to both answers.

Something vaguely like a Corvair

If so, it must be a real rarity - its steering wheel is on the right-hand side!

Well, to be honest: It is a real rarity. But it's not American.

This could be the early version of the TVR Tina Spyder. Mechanicals from the Sunbeam Imp and body by Fissore.

Yes! Body by Fissore, design by (Trevor) Fiore.

The early version, which was shown at Earl's Court in 1966 but which was very quickly given a revised nose-job, is pictured below (at Turin I believe):
