It looks like a Cisitalia D46-1946 monoposto powered by a Fiat-derived 1,100 cc engine , driven usually by Tazio Nuvolari and designed by Dusio and Giacosa ( Head of Engineering and Design at FIAT, Turin). Few pictures available in the web but plenty of info in the site bibliography ( including an Autocar article of 1946). Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Ferdinand Porsche Sr. designed a mid engined Cisitalia in the late 40's early 50's.... but it was not successful. Its at the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart, It's was an interesting story. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cisitalia_Grand_Prix
