SACO · May 15, 2014, 04:07:07 AM

Yes ! a body by Fissore !but not a Fiat 1400 !
Locked for you !

als15 · May 15, 2014, 04:32:06 AM

So, a 1100 EL o ELR.

SACO · May 15, 2014, 05:52:00 AM

Not a Fiat !

richard cuyler · May 15, 2014, 06:56:38 AM

I have this car as a Fiat 1100...

SACO · May 16, 2014, 03:04:15 AM

Have you an other photo ?

Iluvatar · May 16, 2014, 05:09:02 AM

From Paolo Fissore's book, so it should be a reliable source

.
Looking at the wheels, I'd say a 1100 EL (or an old BL) and not an ELR.

SACO · May 17, 2014, 02:24:09 AM

Perhaps the same body with several bases ?

als15 · May 17, 2014, 03:26:03 AM

Honestly, I don't think so. If you look at the details (fog-lamps, side indicator housing, wheelcovers) the 2 photos look indeed of the same car.

SACO · May 17, 2014, 03:49:10 AM

The little badge is not Fiat !

als15 · May 17, 2014, 03:54:22 AM

Good to know. Again to be honest, Fissore's "Fissore" book is 99% reliable. I've already found another wrong caption, indicating a minibus as a Fiat 1100 that - looking at the wheels - cannot be that. So perhaps, among hundreds photos, he can have mixes up a description.
Now I'm curious to know which car is this one actually based on...

Iluvatar · May 17, 2014, 04:50:07 AM

Is it an italian car?

I'm pleased you say 99% and not 100%!
There is a picture in the book of a wooden buck described as the buck for the TVR Trident. It's not; it for the TVR Tina!

Not an Italian car !

SACO · May 30, 2014, 02:52:16 AM
