Handsome it is, Italian it is not

Then I can assume German or French origin.

The assumption is wide of the mark however!

Do you mean I have to choose one of them? Just didn't understand the phrase, sorry

Sorry, I should be clearer in my mother tongue - it's neither French nor German

Afraid not...

Not Italian, Geman or French (not to mention Czechoslovakian). Maybe breeteesh?

I believe I've seen it before, on another photo... $:-\$ but I can't remember when and where. Is it European at all? Or we'll waste much time trying every European country and will finally find out it's not from there...

This is the (very nice indeed) Fitch Whitmore Le Mans Special a Jaguar-based from the father of the Fitch-Bitch and the Phoenix.

Quiller · « **Reply #22 on:** February 05, 2009, 06:32:05 PM »

Signor Jaray, sei incredibile! This magnificent machine is based on XK120 mechanicals

faksta · « **Reply #23 on:** February 05, 2009, 06:52:37 PM »

In this case it has just reminded me of something, because I can't say I've heard of this name before...
