Too difficult for the Rookies but perhaps a Expert can solve it?

Spanish HISPANO SUIZA model A11 last attempt of the company to produce pasenger cars under its own logo. That happened in 1950 producing 3 chassis one without body and two with different bodies. That one was the first bodied.

Absolutely correct!
This as you say was the first-bodied one. The second body was quite different.....
Another point for you.

This first body of the A-11 was made by a bus coachbuilder. I'm attaching a 3/4 view picture of the second body made at the own bacilities of Hispano Suiza in Hostafrancs (Barcelona). That one is a lot nicer.
