It would be nice to see the images from Allemano's post #13.  Sadly, they are victims of the Great Photobucket Purge of 2017.

I can see them all, but can only access three of them. Can't you see any of them?

Here are three I could access:

Thank you for posting the images.  Photobucket blocks access to all original post #13 images for me.

Mine shows the 1950 Riva Fiat 1400 which even won the Concorso in Venice in its class back then!

The 1951 version had the scoop on the bonnet.

There are at least three different versions of the Fiat:

1. One with hood scoop seen in the first post.
2. One with hood scoop and side vents seen in the pictures above.
3. One without either hood scoop or side vents seen in post number 23. This car is referred to as a Coupé Monza on another forum and it is also have a sleeker and more well-proportioned design.

Then of course there is also the very similar looking Alfa shown above.
