No idea, but I would guess that Frua was involved

As far as my source is reliable Frua wasn't involved in designing this car.

Agreed. Allthough the rear could be considered garish, it's the rear 3/4 view that makes the car.
The front is where the problems are.
The grill is too wide making the headlights look too small.
