I can't find any period photos of this car - in fact, all I can find is the make, model and coachbuilder. I need that information to award a point and anything else you can add will be appreciated.

Looks very like a Fiat, ref front windshield and hubcaps. Not like the Jolly cars by Ghia, but similar.
based on a Fiat 600

Indeed it is based on a Fiat 600, locked for your next reply to see if you can find the coachbuilder (and then open again)

Carrozzeria Maragliano, Genova.
Built in 1967 as the first unit of a small series that, actually, was never done.
Here is a period picture.

Unfortunately not. A friend discovered it after the book was published. For sure it will be in the second edition.

Well done!
I'm not surprised it was you who found this one and thanks a lot for the period picture. Do you know if this car had an official name?

Is there more information available about this coachbuilder ? (It seems that there is still a Carrozzeria Maragliano active in Genova.  Is it one and the same company?)
Did they make other carbodies as well?

I'd be very interested to know if the puzzle car is in use as a guest tender to a large yacht.
If so, which yacht?
I ask because I have been involved in the superyacht/megayacht business for the last 30 years.
