It's from 1954!

But not a Fiat or Trevisan...

Yes, I believe it's 1900 based.

And the rest?

Not if you can believe what a listing on Hemmings (and eBay) says...

The only thing I can find is that this Alfa was part of Ecurie La Meute from Geneva, driven by Raymond Hyvert. But I can't confirm that either the Ecurie or Hyvert was responsible for the body.

Thanks for the point. Would be interesting to know if Hyvert as a driver was responsible for the body as well, can't find it anywhere. Any clues ?
