Once again I don't know whether this proposal was ever realized in this way.

For one point, please respond and identify the designer who drew this proposal, whom he made it for and the year it was done.

The proposal is for a European coachbuilder. The car manufacturer is not mentioned, but I have an idea about it which would be a European one, too.

It looks like some Touring Alfa Romeo, so I guess it is a proposal for a new one.

I think it is a proposal for a Delahaye, but the coachbuilder wasn't Ghia.

I found it:  It's a proposal for a Delahaye that Philippe Charbonneaux made at Letourneur & Marchand.  I suppose in 1949.

Yes, I thought it would be a matter of time to find the solution after Carnut posted another Delahaye by Letourneur et Marchand as a puzzle.
But you are not on target with the year. Locked for you to find the correct year.
