I do not have my books with me, I took this pic from the web, but you won't find it on Sannia's book.

I can't argue that...it sure looks the same.
My source is quite reliable, but it might be wrong.
Garavini is not the name I have.
Als15, what do you think?

An Alfa by them with the same front :

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #20 on:** October 05, 2011, 05:23:17 PM »

My source shows that pic too, credited to Castagna (with the Vistotal windscreen) and the puzzle one by another firm...

Indeed ,i also found Fiat 2800 1939 by Borsani for your puzzle !

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #22 on:** October 06, 2011, 03:02:45 AM »

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #23 on:** October 06, 2011, 03:07:33 AM »

This is what my source (an italian magazine) reports but I found a different name on the web too!
I don't know if Castagna and Borsani were both involved on this car...let's wait if someone knows more...
