So..., we’ll all learn something (again)!

[Bucky]

I actually got this one right. Odd little buggy, but I'd have one. Of course, I'd take an AMC Pacer, too!

[carsntrucks4you]

This time I was looking for a 1947 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Sport Cabriolet Ghia.

Ditto!

Well, I was pretty darn sure that it wasn't British or Japanese or Aussie, so then I started thinking about where else made right hand drive cars ever... or at least in the late 40s and early 50s...

best,

My first thought was an Isotta-Fraschini 8C,  then maybe some other Castagna design.  I knew it was some early postwar Italian design, so I ended up going through all the Italian coachbuilders on Coachbuilt.com until I hit the jackpot.

I was so sure it was an Isotta-Fraschini that I almost gave it as my answer.Fortunately I double checked, but then the wheels convinced me that it was a Lancia, so I wasted time on that search. In the end, I resorted to Coachbuilt.com too. An absolute goldmine.
