I am stunned by the speed at which this mystery has been solved.

I was wrong, the car is not Italian. It was built as a Chrysler Hemi special
or Show Car by Joe Gertler of New York, probably for a dealer or other
wealthy
client.

Below is a link to photos of the car being built in the 50's.

My sincere thanks to all who emailed or responded.


Cheers,

Daniel
