Signature and style of the draft is definetely Michelotti's. Guess it was a Ferrari sketch for Stab. Farina or something like that...

It is Ferrari by Michelotti (as I have it), but not for Stab. Farina. I think I'll lock it for you for 24 hours to find the model name.

Yes for Vignale! You are very close, but still it's not the name written in the picture (that probably is not very correct)..

While I can't understand Italian I think You, Allemano, deserve one point for this guess.

No. While I don't fully understand what's the real name of the car and because Allemano was close enough with his guess I reveal the car myself.

Here's the original picture I have found + another one from the internet.. As You see the car is titled Spyder Super Sport, but also has (probably  ???) something to do with 166 Inter.

Another point for explanation and additional story behind this car.

Looks also quite similar to the 225S Vignale Barchettas from 1953.. Problem is that frequently the real cars look different from his first sketches.
