Vetreria Italiana Balzaretti Modigliani should be the producer of fiberglass, but actually I don't know the name of the car: I've to read all my collection of a famous italian review  :)

I've no idea... the car looks indeed similar... but I don't know what is the link (if there is one...) between that car and the puzzle question...

And the two words are not "Bakelite polyester"...
But maybe you are on the right track...

It was also referred to as 'PVC' and 'Plastic'..
I believe the body in the picture I posted was developed by Dick Shattock into the RGS Atalanta; any connection?

What I'm looking for is a trademark, not a common name like Plastic or PVC...
Unluckly I don't know anything about the car in the ad... maybe it was bodied with this specific material (by Vetreria Italiana Balzaretti Modigliani as thorax found)... but the ad doesn't tell the name of the car... it's just an example of the possible use of this material...

From what i can gather "Vetrotex RMP" is a registered trade name for "Glass fibre"...!

I dunno what just happened there Carnut, but If its any consolation I think you did well and deserve a point.

That photo you had of the Bakelite body was excellent.
