A Sunbeam Alpine with an Italian body.  Michelotti?

It is a Sunbeam Alpine but the coachbuilder is not Michelotti
The name is certainly obscure and one that I presume may be a one-off

Sunbeam Alpine bodied by Finidori - a little coachbuilder from southern France. I don't know any other body from this coachbuilder, but I don't beleive it is a one-off ; I think a few were made.
