Looks like a Bizzarrini Kjara, maybe there is a connection. "Prometea is a new workshop for prototype`s development " Probably they did the Kjara for Biz.

That should be in French yes!? The similiraty of those parts are pretty high.. I will continue searching, but seems there are almost 0 information about it

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #55 on:** October 12, 2008, 10:01:53 AM »

Pretty high? The only difference is that the Bizzarrini has a red wheel cover over the same wheels! If you look closer, even the shape of the head rest is the same....

I have already found a link that discloses much of this business

But there's one problem: it is Italian.. I also have time to understand it myself

There's another one:

Anyone has idea what this could be?

If I'm not completely mistaken "Dornier Delta" leads to proper search results

The front part looks pretty smilar, but the front lights are different $:-\$

I know this car has been already identified as Art & Tech Sogna somewhere in Auto Puzzles forums. I would really like to get any possible information about this car (not short sentences Google offers to read..). Thank You all!

5.2l v12. 448 hp. 3087 lbs. Top speed of 185 mph. It's based upon a Lamborghini Countach Anniversary model. Other than that, I've got nothing.

porridgehead · « **Reply #68 on:** November 06, 2008, 08:48:38 PM »

Oh wait, I do have something. I have a question! Somebody on another forum saw a car on a trailer and is trying to figure out what he saw. It's unusual so it should be a piece of cake for you guys. The simple description is a long, low boattail coupe from the late 20's - early 30's. Its cabin is styled like a chopped Ford 3 window coupe. For a full description, and some guesses, click here: http://forums.thecarlounge.net/zerothread?id=4098968&page=1

He believes it was a Bentley but is unsure. Whatever it was, there are not many boat-tail coupes around, so this should be a piece of cake!

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #69 on:** November 07, 2008, 04:42:58 AM »

I would like to try, but can't open that site...can someone post that pic?

porridgehead · « **Reply #70 on:** November 07, 2008, 08:56:21 AM »

That's part of the problem: there is no photo of the car. All we have to go on is a description. Here's what he said:

It was dark green and black, very low-slung, obviously from the late-20s early-30s era. A two door coupe with a passenger compartment reminiscent of a chopped Ford 3-window '32 Coupe, boattail rear, large wire wheels, and a long hood bedecked with what looked like something that may've been a Bentley Flying-B hood emblem - but on that I can't be sure, as it passed by so quickly.

In addition, there was no spare mounted on the back and, as it was a boat-tail, the passenger compartment was mounted forward, yet it still had a long hood. I posted a bunch of images that met some of his description to get a sense of proportion. He said that the closest ones were the following Ruxton (but the front end was wrong) and Bentley (but the rear end is wrong)

It has occurred to me that it may not have been a fixed head coupe, so keep that in mind too.

porridgehead · « **Reply #71 on:** November 12, 2008, 02:50:27 PM »

The mystery has been solved!

Here's the car:

Now, no cheating. See if you can figure out what it is!

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #72 on:** November 12, 2008, 03:10:42 PM »

Old, or made to look old?

I'd say a Honda NSX with Koenigsegg-like headlights and a rear end made to look like a Saleen S7.
