Obviously based on a Fiat 126, but one wonders about the generator in the back - is that for an overtaking boost?

It's not denial, I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.

 ;D Thanks for your amusing comments

* Not a Moke
* It is based on a Fiat 126
* I think the generator in the back is merely a 'look what we can carry' thing

Sir Quiller, I believe this to be the refreshingly open Fiat 126 Cavalletta prototype of 1976, which was presented in both soft-top and hard-top forms.

Correct! A rare case of Fiat doing itself what all those carrozzerie were churning out in the 1970s

Strange... I've checked before posting.  :-\

Ah, I see.. Quiller spelled it with two "L".
I will change it.

Maybe it's one of those self-designed brochures...

I checked it. Cavalletta is correct. It means something like grasshopper.
