Say what you see...
« on: 05 July 2018, 19:43:04 »
Spotted this on the street and have no idea what it could b, thought I’d put it out to the OOf collective wisdom. It’s badged Ghia everywhere other than a small fez horse on the umberplate. Any offers? Never seen anything like it before  :-\

That rear end looks very kit car like,but I suppose it could be one of the Frua cars.

Inclined to agree, but the interior was definitely a professional/company fit-out.

Got me beat that one?

Opti will be along shortly. He will have one in his stables I would guess.

At a guess , a one off from a styling house maybe based on a Fiat. Didnt Italian studios use Ghia as a sales badge?

There is a tool on the internet where you put in a photo of a person and I believe it tells you who the nearest match is. Cant you do the same with a photo of a car?

What country is that? France?

1960's Ghia 1500 gt .
Unusual front end modification to the standard factory production but still a very pretty car.
Nice spot.  :y
