READ CAREFULLY:

Here you are a different kind of puzzle.
Try to identify this car.
If you want to play fair, find the answer the old fashioned way.
If you want to cheat, you can easily find it via Google Image Search, 1st page.
If you are dumb, here's the answer:  - Fiat 2800 Borsani -, (right click and copy to read it.)

it's a game, if you like to play it go on!


(BTW: if you know the car, don't be afraid to answer immediately!  ;D )

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?

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

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...
