I think I have this car on a book, it should be a Formula Junior, with Fiat (or Lancia engine)...too vague, isn't it?

Concerning the rims: has it something to do with Alfa Romeo?

Is it equipped with an Alfa Romeo engine? Maybe downsized like the Alfa Romeo Abarth 1000.

Oops, missed that - or forgot, more likely.

Probably not an Alfa engine as it has exhaust and carb on the same side. Most likely pushrod Fiat

A handful of these cars were built in the late 1950's, including 1959. And this picture was taken at an event that took place in 1959.

Let's try Foglietti then... They've had Fiat engines and were produced since 1958 AFAIK.

Withdrawn..I've found a picture of Foglietti, it's different.
It's rather hard to decide what to put next, as I have around 15 variants... All of them rather well fit into the above conditions...
But I don't know exact production years and numbers built for them.
So, blind guess.. Patriarca?

Not a Patriarca.

The name of this car was revived some years later by a well known manufacturer, for a family of road-going automobiles.

A separate gallows for each of us? Or are you planning to hang us all together? :D
