Easy Rookie point?  What's this, from when?

Right so far (although I had it as slightly later and made in Rome...).
Any idea who made it and the model name?

In the book "Kleinwagen International" of Walter Zeichner, pag. 222 I've read C.I.M.E.M. as the company producing the GIRINO in 1951

Again my info as slighly different, with the maker being CINEM of Rome..
Plus the date I have is a bit later.  But we won't split hairs on those 2 points.

However, I have a model name, but my source is known for being somewhat unreliable so perhaps it's not right.

Have one more go to see if you can match the model name I have.

You've got nearly the whole answer here luisps but just not quite the last bit.
Today is this puzzle's day to be moved up to the Experts, but I don't like giving the point to someone who just gets the last bit of the question using info supplied by you, so I'll give you one last chance to give me the last little bit of info by locking this for 24 more hours; after that it'll be unlocked and moved up to the Experts if you don't reply!

Hello,

I have two sources. One source said it is the CIMEM Girono from Milano Italy. This source said it was made in 1951.
The other source said CIMEM from Rome, Italy and it was made in 1955.

The modelname of this threewheeler is Motospyder.

One source said there are a few cars made, the other source said it was only a prototype.

Is this the answer you looking for?

Maybe, as he did actually identify the car correctly.
But he didn't answer all the puzzle questions; I did lock it for him more than once and a reply would have been nice, even if it was to say he couldn't find anything more...
So, I'll think about it.

Does anybody know what this car is?  I don't, so I need a proof to give you a point.

It looks a replay of: http://www.autopuzzles.com/forum/2012-41/solved-neh-1685-cimem-girino-motospyder-1953/
In any case this picture its the only one that I've seen with the top cover on it.

That's it. I did'nt remember it was a repost, so it's to be merged.  Anyway a well earned point for you.
Meanwhile I got a rear view of this rare vehicle.
