Well, the standard has been to keep rookie puzzles here for 5 days, and then move them to the 'expert' section. If you want me to, I'll move this one sooner.

It is the Volvo Elisabeth I from 1952/53. Designed by Michelotti for Ghia Aigle and built on a PV445 chassis for the swedish businessman Gösta Wennberg.

mmmh... I always thought it was made by Vignale..

It appears at the Ghia Aigle page which reports it was designed by Michelotti, built by Allemano for Vignale...
