Does anyone know what this is?
Very similar lines to this:
I thought of a Longchamp, but the rear window treatment is wrong.
I've seen that thing somewhere, and I should know what it is.
A chap on the Atlas F1 Nostalgia forum tracked it down - it's a 1971 Momo Mirage; Chevy mechanicals, Frua body, built by Monteverdi.
I am completely wrong, but my first instinct was Ford Mustang - though a second look said the radiator grille ruled that out.
But did Ford use a stylist that also worked for an Italian company?

Yay! For some reason the name Frua came to mind the moment I looked at the photo. Now I'm trying to think why...
Ah yes:
I'd been thinking Frua in terms of going "Is that a Glas?" and then wondering about oddballs like the Monteverdi.
He really did design some beautiful, understated cars.
