This car was commissioned for SH Arnolt as a personal car. Bertone built the body ;D

Occasionally I have to try and make a living... :yuck:
This is chassis B43LSP, which was shown on the 1953 Geneva Show, where it went almost unnoticed. Ordered as mentioned by Stanley Harold 'Wacky' Arnolt through S.H.Arnolt Inc., it is not clear how long and if Mr Arnolt (née Aranoff) actually used the car himself.
