1 point for identifying what make this is, based on what, who built the body and when:

Yes; you must have one of those excellent books!

Here's a front view:

Wow - the front is even better-looking!

Allemano · « **Reply #7 on:** April 04, 2012, 06:01:55 AM »

Thanks for the pictures! I've already had a sketch of it, but never saw the real May-Britt.

Allemano · « **Reply #8 on:** April 04, 2012, 06:36:12 AM »

I didn't know, but meanwhile another picture is available.

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #9 on:** April 04, 2012, 08:27:34 AM »

That pic was in a recent issue of Wheels Akimbo magazine

Anyone has more pictures of the Giannini expo area?

fromwien · « **Reply #11 on:** October 12, 2020, 03:54:58 PM »

For one point please identify this car

OldCrankshaft · « **Reply #12 on:** October 23, 2020, 12:11:30 PM »

Continent wise, where abouts?

fromwien · « **Reply #13 on:** October 23, 2020, 04:21:49 PM »

That's the question,... make me an offer....

OldCrankshaft · « **Reply #14 on:** October 24, 2020, 01:42:02 AM »

It looks like it was built in North America?

fromwien · « **Reply #15 on:** October 24, 2020, 06:19:22 AM »

No, sorry, not North America...

727 · « **Reply #16 on:** October 24, 2020, 06:33:01 AM »

Is it a French vehicle?

fromwien · « **Reply #17 on:** October 24, 2020, 06:43:39 AM »

Not French, but not far from there...

OldCrankshaft · « **Reply #18 on:** October 24, 2020, 06:53:56 AM »

German?

Even though it's not french, in a way, it looks kind of like a Renault Floride....

There are suttle differences though, such as the bonnet scoop, which isn't present on the floride, and the bumpers. The swerves and slopes of the Floride is what reminds me of it.

fromwien · « **Reply #19 on:** October 24, 2020, 08:11:23 AM »

Not German, and no connection with Renault Floride/Caravelle....

OldCrankshaft · « **Reply #20 on:** October 24, 2020, 08:24:02 AM »

I know, it just reminded me of it.....

Italian?

OldCrankshaft · « **Reply #22 on:** October 24, 2020, 10:09:01 PM »

It looks like it was built around the 40's - 50's.

Any connection with other companies? (Chassis, engines, etc.)

I did find some cars close to that design, but nothing with that front...

fromwien · « **Reply #23 on:** October 25, 2020, 04:08:55 AM »

Not 40's, but 50's....
...and there is a connection with another company....
(Please only one question each post, according the rules....)

OldCrankshaft · « **Reply #24 on:** October 29, 2020, 02:52:24 AM »

Is it the only example they made?
