This car could be seen on AutoPuzzles before, but never as a puzzle of its own.

For one point, please respond and identify this car, its designer, its coachbuilder and the year it appeared.

Not Autobleu, but Gutbrod.

Locked for targhediferro to come up with the missing bits.

Yes, one more point for you.

The car was mentioned here before in connection with the other Gutbrod Superior Sport roadsters: http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=22393.msg240086#msg240086

Very nice car, even if I find normal Gutbrod more proportioned.
