Fiat Barchetta 1100 from 1950 derived from a  Fiat 1100E Spyder and driven (owned?) by one Ruffili Ivan.

It is a Fiat 1100 Barchetta though I have a different date when it dates from.
What I really want for the point is who bodied it rather than who owns it though...!

Strange, I have the Carrozzeria Marazzi company as founded in in 1967, and the brothers previously worked at Touring. Was it by the same Marazzi family?

Carlo Marazzi set up his own Carrozzeria in 1950 after gaining his experience at Touring and Zagato.  In 1962 the company was re-organised into Carrozzerria Marazzi srl and expanded with the help of Carlo's sons Mario and Nino (Serafino) when Touring closed in 1965 and they persuaded Lamborghini to give them the contract for the design and manufacture of bodies for the Islero and Jarama, amongst many other jobs.  The crisis in the coachbuilding industry in the 1970s forced them to change the business to the manufacture of public service vehicles and funeral cars, but they do still exist and make the occasional concept car.
