Is it a sketch by someone working for a major motor manufacturer rather than independent designer.

Majeko · « **Reply #3 on:** March 02, 2015, 12:42:04 PM »

Not working for a motor manufacturer.

Is it a 2dr saloon.

Majeko · « **Reply #13 on:** March 03, 2015, 03:42:06 PM »

Small car with 2 doors.

wingroad · « **Reply #14 on:** March 04, 2015, 03:08:13 PM »

So not a saloon but a coupe

Majeko · « **Reply #15 on:** March 04, 2015, 03:38:57 PM »

Yes, small 2 door coupe

wingroad · « **Reply #16 on:** March 04, 2015, 03:57:54 PM »

so Italian coachbuilder like Michelotti

wingroad · « **Reply #17 on:** March 04, 2015, 03:58:44 PM »

Not recent by the type of sketch so from the 1970's

Majeko · « **Reply #18 on:** March 04, 2015, 04:19:07 PM »

Not by Michelotti and not from the seventies!

wingroad · « **Reply #19 on:** March 04, 2015, 06:28:12 PM »

Sixties ?
Looks a bit crude for the eighties

Angular -- works more with straight lines than curves. Bertone?

Majeko · « **Reply #21 on:** March 05, 2015, 04:14:53 AM »

Sixties is correct, not by Bertone.

wingroad · « **Reply #22 on:** March 05, 2015, 10:35:06 AM »

Design by Ghia for Volkswagen Karmann Ghia ?

Majeko · « **Reply #23 on:** March 05, 2015, 10:56:08 AM »

Not by Ghia.
