Nary a guess. Time to give the Experts a shot at this one.

I would suspect Vignale, but the evidence is purely circumstantial

Astral..not their best effort, back and front appear to belong to different cars.

A repost with old Puzzles#847 ; but not many rear view of this car !
1 point for Hiawatha !

Amazing photo, and the only picture I have found of a Boneschi Astral from behind. I suspect that Gulp-Model did not have access to a rear view of the Astral, when they created the scale versions of both the grey and green versions. The back of their models include a bumper, among other strange differences.

It is hard to tell, if this is the same version as shown in Puzzles#847.

SACO · « **Reply #19 on:** May 28, 2017, 12:03:17 PM »

Indeed !

Hiawatha · « **Reply #20 on:** May 28, 2017, 01:10:09 PM »

Boneschi made apparently 2 cars, maybe there were variations ..

Alfa_Japan · « **Reply #21 on:** January 27, 2021, 05:14:30 AM »

There were indeed variations for the two cars. The body colour was different (metallic grey and metallic green) and the front grille was different.
