It's Silver RAY...last car Nardi ever built.  But Erbas was close enough for my tastes...

The Nardi "Silver Ray" by Michelotti.  This car is featured in the 1962 International Auto Parade yearbook. In Automobile Year #9 (1961-62) there is another picture of the same car on page 101 with the caption:

"This low two seater coupe has a body designed by MIchelotti on a Nardi chassis to the order of an American client (James Simpson). The Plymouth Golden Commando V-8 engine develops about 350BHP giving it a maximum speed of about 140mph. The frame is tubular, suspension is by modified Alfa Romeo coil spring units at the front and semi elliptic springs at the rear; brakes are discs on all four wheels."
