I had to look (at the thumbnails) a few times before I spotted it, at first glance I thought it was an Aurelia GT. The difference is easy to see in the larger photo, it looks quite good but not as "together" as a production car. Coincidentally I saw a Jupiter (with original body) at a show over here last weekend.

A different problem

A recent Time Magazine has an article about Gianni Agnelli's grandson, new top dog at Fiat. In it, they have a photo captioned Fiat Dino with body by Pininfarina.

Unfortunately, the photo is of a Lamborghini Marzal show car with body by Bertone.

They only got two things wrong.

I must confess a preference to GT bodies rather than open sports cars. Interesting concept! Of course Alfas had some great GT/Coupe bodies on some of their competition cars both pre war and early post war.
