    I would put it in the "fake" category.

    For one the engine is a fiat-Osca, not a pure Osca engine.
    Second, Vignale would never have constructed a cr tha the trim piece below the door is not horizontal and integral. Many of th body features appear token at best.
    Three, the "period" picture is just a photoshop picture of this car made out to look old.

    Shall I go on??

    Is it made at the Vignale branch in Belgium? I hear Production in the 2000's there was very active.

    Another "mysterious" that came to light in Belgium (as much of the others fake-a-do`s from that country ...)??

    I fully agree with Elad, there is no such thing as a 1957 "prototype competition" OSCA.
    It should be noted also that "wheelsofitaly.com" is a "WIKI" type site, where any registered reader can contribute entries, making it easy to guess who posted the "competition barchetta" photos. I hope the bidders on eBay know what they are doing.

    I know there has not been any action on this thread in years but I have been looking for more photos of a particular car. It is an early MT4 #1121 driven and owned by Bill Spears. Here are some photos I have of the car. I am also looking for any history of this car between 1957 and 1972.

    Thanks,

    Dario

    Here is a link to more photos of #1121

    Seems Bill David drove 1135 only after September 1953 (1135 was manufactured in September 1953, and probably delivered a few months later). From March to September 1953, he drove another OSCA, chassis 1127 according to the records, but possibly, he did not own the car, as he shows as driver only for a few months, and George Moffett appears as driver and sometimes "entrant" before and after the David period.

    Indeed thats what i found too, in the Orsini Osca book. But the blue car doesn't correspond to what 1146 look liked at MM in 1955.

    So anybody know then VIN of this blue car wearing TO228228?
