One-off? Ghia related?

Point is already awarded, but do you know the other Italian company which was involved in the project?
And the name is not 100% correct!

It's "Chrysler Special Corsaire"; The only firm name mentioned in my source (unfortunately in an language that I don't understand, so it may mean they were NOT involved) is Ghia. But you said there was no relation.

No, it's not! It's a quite famous company, specialized not on coachbuidling, though.

I give another point for telling me the name of the second company.  ;)

I still can find it so anybody who can is invited to compete.
But I had forgotten this convenient - although quite unreliable - google bonus: page translation. It seems that Ghia should have been involved but finally did'nt because they tought it was too much competing with the Chrysler Ghias.

Why don't you move it upstairs, by the way?

And there is of course always a connection between Boano and Ghia*, but in theis case the name Ghia isn't mentioned

* Felice Boano was the head of design at Ghia back then and later made his own company Boano.
  The story has much more interisting facts, but let's keep it simple and short here.

Still confused by Cher?  ;D No, it's not a typical coachbuilder as I've written before!

I like the disparate wipers too. Don't see too many cars with wipers like that. That I can think of. Offhand.

Does the script on the front say "Chrysler Special" or some such?
