Is it an early de Tomaso?
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Interesting....in Curami's book, there is a similar car, called Lotus-Giannini, that looks like this one but the front is different and the side is barely visible. According to that book, it was a 1000cc.

Definitely not the same car. This puzzle car has a boxer engine.

Strangely enough, I had Googled Giannini sports cars and this one didn't show - now I have the full title of course it does! It looks very old-fashioned for 1968. I had assumed 1962/63.
