Bingo!

The clue was in the Coggiola connection; they interpreted a number of Sessano's designs, although whether he was every actually employed by them I don't know..


Well done.

Well done.
Aldo Sessano always worked as a freelancer resp. consultant for the automotive industry. He had his own studio, but never had his own workshop. He jobbed for many different car companies (Mitsubishi for example), but in most cases and for confidentiality reasons he didn't get credits for his design authorship. That's the main reason why he got less reputation than many other car automotive designers.

There's a special feature about him in an old CarStyling magazine. His portfolio has a wide range. I'll post it the coming days when I find the time...

Plus Otto has mentioned the AMC Gremlin more than once here, so I think he's serious; he must have designed that one too, although I can see why he keeps quiet about it...

Don't think it had an engine; it's only a drawing!

Looking at where the people are sitting and the general layout of the vehicle I would say the intention was to base it on the Fiat 600; perhaps it's an early idea for a Multipla?
