PM me with your answer (Make, model and year).

Please do NOT post anything in the comments that will help others to identify the vehicle.

Please do NOT use reverse image lookup, as it defeats the entire purpose of the game.

It had a single piece, welded body - far from ideal if you crumpled a fender!

Just out of curiosity since I am fairly new the auto ID game here, have any of them gone unanswered/unsolved?

While I figured out the last two fairly easily, this one is proving to be a real challenge.

I've never seen one unsolved. There are two or three die-hards who can find even the most obscure subjects (I'm not one of them, I hasten to add!). They clearly have prodigious memories, excellent reference resources (and maybe a lot of time on their hands ;-P)

If it was purple I'd have an idea where to start, BUT it's not clear on whether it has one or more horns.

That was my favourite song when I was about 7 years old.

Once, in the official game, a car had only one person find it.

Once, in a "weekend special" a fellow uploaded an obscure car from a book. The car could not be found on the internet, so no one got that one either.

hah!!!

I knew I'd seen that before, just took me a while to find it again.

that is definitely one of the cars you can't "un-see".

saw quite a few gems along the way.  ;)

It looks a lot like the Triclops Superleggera SS1500, styled by the somewhat obscure Scultore Cieco, while working for the equally obscure Sapone Bagnato-fusa coachbuilding firm that was housed in a windowless basement in Fiat's old Officine Grandi Motori inTurin.   ;)
