Pre WWI (1914)?
Knowing the car is Italian, and assuming that it is 1914, or prior, I'm going to try a long shot. The puzzle car strongly resembles a Fiat Zero, but, since this is AutoPuzzles, I think that would be a bit too easy. I'm going to try a car that was supposed to be very similar to a Fiat Zero (I don't have a picture), and say the puzzle car might be a: Feroldi Tipo Unico from about 1912.
