Yes! I saw this Renault last year when I visited the temporary exposition at Corso Massimo d“Azeglio ( Palazzo Esposizioni ) and this is a very special car! with an Italian body!

Not a Locati & Torretta body...but you“re in the right direction of darkness
Not a Belgian or British chassis or Kellner body!

4- your earlier reply to pnegyesi suggests that this coachbuilder was active for less than ten years, do you confirm this?

and is this a Fiat chassis?

Not an European chassis so,not Fiat.
I“m not sure but I believe so...He made Panhards,Delages...and many others...
Not a Carrozzeria Fert bodied Renault.
