SAC#83 : Fiat 1100s ,Gilco chassis ,by Zagato 1951

Happy to have find the solution (even if very late: I know very well that cat but, I didn't connected the rear with the front view  ).

Only a small detail: Gilco is not a car brand. It's just the maker of the tubular frame chassis. Gilco never made one single car; but according to the period FIA regulations, cars entered races with the name of the chassis-maker. This is the only reason why sometimes some cars are called "Gilco", but under an historical point of view this is not correct.

Are you sure that it's the same car? At least the vents in the hood are missing..

It is a Gilco 1100S Zagato but not necessarily the same car (the wheels are different of course!); maybe they made more than one?
My picture is described as the "prototype" on the Zagato Cars 'site, but that in itself doesn't meant there was more than 1.
I think I've seen a picture from a different angle and the vents are actually there.

I think that the wheelbase is different :

Yes - and the front grille could be slightely less square as well.
So - they built more than one!
