I can see the resemblance, but that's not it.

It looks like it is Ferrari GTO inspired, but it seems smaller.
The build is Italian, but the base is also Italian (chassis, engine)?

Ferrari chassis: YES
Drogo coachwork: YES

Thread locked for you to identify the year and model (in 3 questions/attempts or 48 hours, whichever occurs first).

Good enough to earn the point! (0716 TR is a 1957 250 TR, but it was rebodied by Drogo in 1964.)

Thanks. I struggled with this one, my first thought was a Ferrari, but it looks small next to the Beetle.
But I had fun researching it.
