Hmmm...I have the same pic as yours plus 2 more...and the stands were more or less in the same position the ones you can see in the background of the other pics here...I thought I recognized the white panel for the Giulietta too...but obviously you know better...

The stands are almost in the same place... but if you look at my picture (reply#419) you can see the Siata stand in a different position, the Siata banner is just above the Volkswagen banner (so it's around the left of Alfa Romeo)... and in 1954 Siata was near Zagato and Moretti, in another position!

And this is a picture from 1955, you can see the odd Rolls-Royce by Vignale, bodied in spring 1955.

Perhaps a Fiat Giardinetta Coriasco behind the Bertone stand ?

It's a Fiat Giardinetta, but not by Coriasco.

Is it perhaps a Fiat 1100/103 giardinetta Monterosa?

Yes! Monterosa is the right coachbuilder.
I'm not sure about 1100, but according to the size it should be correct.

Another Cadillac behind the Eldorado, a 54 Coupé de Ville.

Yes!

I would say this is a Fiat 682 RN with Viberti body.

Do you have a picture of it to compare?

[targhediferro]

That's from a magazine about Turin '54.

I believe your bus is not the one indicated by the arrow, because the white(?) stripe below the windows is less large... and the grille seems different too... but you bus could be somewhere else...

Perhaps a Simca sport for the 3rd car on Simca stand ?

[targhediferro]

Perhaps a Simca sport for the 3rd car on Simca stand ?

Or perhaps another Alfa Romeo 1900 SS?  The side positioned wipers, the window's and fender's lines could match.

targhediferro spotted the right car, it's in the Alfa Romeo stand, next to the Simca stand!

Siata Stand, another "ghost car ". A 1954 Siata Fiat 1100 TV by Vignale.

Really a ghost car... I've no evidence of the presence of this car in the show... but the picture seems clear...
So I give you this point...

Watching the picture of Simca stand in answer 436, in the background between the two Arondes, I suppose we can see another Lancia Aurelia B12. According with it's position it should be the same car we can see the open boot in the picture of Lancia's stand (#68, on the left, under the yellow circle) and it hasn't been recognised yet.

Ghia-Serie Speciali stand : a 1954 Fiat 1100 called "De Luxe" with sunroof by Heppich from Germany.

The one you pointed out is the 1100 "Quotidiana" already found by targhediferro (#19)

[Joćo]

Oh sorry, my mistake. I“ll try then car number 4.

[Iluvatar]

Yes, this one looks to have a sunroof...

[targhediferro]

So it seems that between this De Luxe with open roof and the Quotidiana #19, there is another 1100 Quotidiana.

Although I'm not 100% sure about it, it could be correct, so I consider it solved too.

[Joćo]

According to my source, there were two 1100 DeLuxe by Ghia. One with sunroof, color : grigio piombo e celeste. This is the first one beside the Tutta Luce.

Next car : There is another 1900SS by Touring (black car) beside the light colored one, Touring stand.
