Intermeccanica Indra from the early seventies? I don't know the exact year of that particular car. Perhaps 1973.

To be precise, it is the Intermeccanica Indra Fastback Coupe, as it was also available as convertible and hardtop coupe.

A brilliant looking car, but unfortuntaly famous for its unreliability.

Odd that, wasn't it based on Opel mechanics? Or was that only Bitter?

It was based on the Opel Diplomat and can be regarded as a Bitter CD predecessor, as Erich Bitter was involved in the Indra project, too.
