The only other thing it looks like to me is a Triumph Italia of the same vintage (1961-2) but I have no recollection of the taillights.

It does look similar, I agree, but Triumph Italia is not the answer!

It looks like a Beutler bodied Porsche. Did you erase the exhaust tips?

No, it's not that.
I only erased the registration number - nothing else.

Those taillights look like they were lifted off of a Nissan Skyline.

Highly unlikely that they were though...
