Yes; not sure about the 'Grifo' bit but it's a modern evocation based on Iso Lele bits.
I couldn't find out who built it..
1 point for you.

Quite so. Looks like a Spitfire-based Sammio. Not to my taste.
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

I suppose the Iso Lele was suffering from terminal tin-worm so wasn't worth restoring as they're not worth a great deal.
So somebody thought it would be a good idea to use it to make this instead...!

SOLVED: Djetset 1079 - Iso Rivolta Lele-based Barchetta (bodywork unknown?)
« Reply #22 on: August 11, 2020, 11:36:10 AM »
For a point, what car is this barchetta based on? (with a possible bonus point if you can find - with proof - the name of the coachbuilder, which I don't know, so evidence will be needed for the latter).
A car is for life, not just for Christmas.
