Default I wonder how many will know this one


Seriously, I really can't think that too many people know this one. If that's not the case, prove me wrong!!!

The blurred writing is the info about the car, well the name and where it was made and when.
Its hard to tell from just a shot of the hood.
That is what adds to the difficulty of this one.

I think it's from the Abarth family (the white one just beside it is a Fiat Abarth 600). For the exact name I have to dig into my piles of magazine....could take some time!

I'm afraid you're both wrong. Loliea; I'll save you the time and effort, its not from the Abrath family.

Damned! I thought it was a derivative of the Fiat Abarth 500.
Can you give a clue? Is it brazilian?

The Europa is a mid engine car, so it doesn't make sense to have the hood "scoop" where it is. Actually...i think it may be a rear engined car since the engine is behind the gearbox. Also there seems to be too much space between the nose and headlights to be a Europa

I'd say that the Matra might be the closest so far.

My guess is (and I'm probably wrong but what the fuck) it's an Alpina. I don't know the name but it reminds me of an Alpina from the seventies.
