North American event?

(By the way, I still have some questions, so feel free to unlock whenever you think I've reached the limit and it's time to do so.)

Interesting (and new to me)! I only have Damonte listed as an entry driving the Alfa Romeo in the 2000cc class (#20), nothing for him in this Nardi. Thanks for the point and the interesting puzzle!

By the way, as this car seems to have never appeared again, the possibility exists that it was wrecked, rebodied, or both not long after these photos were taken (February, 1954). I'm wondering if some of this car may have been incorporated into the Crosley-powered, Motto-bodied Nardi shown at the Salone di Torino in April-May of 1954, and then entered (Damonte/Gacon) at Le Mans in June of the same year? Just a thought!

In the past few years I've been working on a "book" with all the Italian sports ever made. Not only Stanguellini, Ermini, Giannini, Nardi, Siata, Taraschi, Moretti and so on, but also hundreds of small names, such as Antolini Ossi, Bagnoli, Cibin, De Martiis, Fenocchio, Gidoni, Luchini, Manelli, Nespoli, Orlando, Pariani, Spata, Tell, Valenzi ...(just to make a tour of the alphabet). I am at good point (nearly 800 cars already done, few hundreds almost ready and some dozens to investigate further) for more than 1000 pages. I already listed all there is to say about Nardi...but it seems I missed this car. Is there anything else about? Where I can find the original video, if possible? Here you are the draft of Nardi's chapter.

I believe this is not a Nardi at all.
In fact it should be the ALF (Avalle-Lancia-Florio) in one of his different stages.
