Sorry, I think to know many details of this car, but there are only very few informations about its race history. So I have to answer, I don't know really

Too many difficult questions ! So I will try to help you to find the right solutions:

Car: Pastorello: I know about sources, to name this car "Pastorello". More exactly the name is "OP", for "Officina Pastorello"
Type: TF Diablo: No. Consists of four numerals, closely related with the engine
Year: 1974: No, earlier
Built by: Ferdinando Pastorello
Based on?
Engine: Alfa Romeo: Yes but which one?

4) Alfa Romeo SZ?
5) Alfa Romeo GTA?

Only small adjustments necessary:

Car: Yes: "Pastorello" or "OP" for "Officina Pastorello"
Type: 0502: No. Consists of four numerals, closely related to the engine's capacity
Year: 1971: Yes
Built by: Ferdinando Pastorello
Based on: Very close, you are on the right way with Zagato...
Engine: Alfa Romeo GTA: Yes

Hi fromwien, you don't have to apologize, it was exciting to find the solution to your puzzle!
Indeed, this deserves further study. For example, to me it is only a modified TZ2 frame, and it was used to build the Tiger (and here I take this opportunity to thank Trefoil, thanks to his question about the Tiger he gave me the answer to another puzzle) and then the name of the Shepherd , an old OP mechanic said it was an OP Cobra ....

Indeed, this car is really an absolute stunning creation. Built up on an slightly modified TZ2-chassis, only (!?) altered, to pick up the GTA-engine in the middle instead of the front! Sometimes ago, I did a lot of research about this car

Dear 'ducamax66', I think, I missed yesterday, to award you with the point. So here it is
