Not BMW powered. I think the car may have competed in hillclimbs in its native country, but was more of a circuit racer.

Is it a modified version of another car, or a design from a small manufacturer.

It's a design from a small maker. Probably a one-off.

Can we establish the engine?  As it's Italian the obvious choice was Alfa Romeo, as it isn't that, is it Fiat-powered?

Do we know what race it is in? Visually it looks like the Targa Florio, but that race number seems too high.
