I saw the thread title "Best of France and Italy" and thought you must be talking about the Citroen Sport Maserati. Here is a '73 with the ultra-rare Michelin RR wheels.

Jerry Hathaway restored/rebuilt the '73 SM in the pictures I posted.
Oh, and here's a variation on the same theme, but with a little Porsche 911 content:

Now we're talking! . . .
This is why I go to 'other' cars shows . . . for all this stuff I've never seen/heard of before . . . or don't remember/forgot
Innocenti . . . ee-no-tchen-tay . . . nick-named 'The Pumpkin' and apparently know by a small circle of entertainment-industry types who've owned/passed-around this little beastie since it came here
Basically, an Austin Mini dressed by Bertone, early '70s. Has rust --- just no place that's showing . . . . yet
Orange + royal blue velour interior
Kinda reminds me of an AMC Gremlin . . . only oranger

Here's one for Uli . . . .
One of 40, so the Seller says . . . FIAT 125 underneath
Starskini & Hutchione paint-job?
Moretti GS16 . . .
(Shoulda taken more pictures, huh? . . .)
More - more - more - Moretti
No sign/description/proud papa + momma attached to this one, but . . . . whatta cutie!
Bertone-penned, I'm guessing . . . very FIAT Dino-esque in the schnozzola . . . and kinda funky/different --- but still eye-catching. Tiny, too --- as in, X1/9. Not surprising --- '850' tag on the tail
Neat details . . . mirror, wheels, wiper arms, dash, steering wheel . . . arrow-straight + super-tidy --- in/out
'W' black plate dates to ~ late '68
Looks loved

The Moretti belongs to friend and big Fiat and Abarth player Merkel Weiss....
And yes it's super TINY .... I think I can dig up a pic of our big friend Lars standing beside the Moretti....for scale.....

Alfa-Romeo . . . I'm guessing a 1900?
Trying hard to look sporty
I have this picture of Alfa-Romeo . . . smaller, interesting coachwork, little mustache bumpers + bits o' trim. Not this car
Surprising rear window . . . huge + 'wrap-around' w/ alloy stringers . . . reminds me of Zagato. Original? Car looks mid-'50s so this would be a pretty early appearance for this kinda feature
