Dear Alfisti, I don't have the Legendary 2.3 book, so can anybody help me with identification (s/n) of this car, please.

First registered in 1934 by Gianfranco Peduzzi, a resident of Como, Italy.
After the WWII rebodied by PF as cabrio.
Rebodied by Bob Smith Coachworks as Touring LM replica for current owner in 2004.

Gianfranco Peduzzi is referred to in The Legendary 2.3 for having first registered 2311222 in Como (CO9964) on June 12th 1935. Simon Moore quotes Angela Cherrett's data on this. After the war it wore a strange and little appealing body in US style, whose inspiration is believed by Simon as a 1939 Graham.

Thanks, gtv2000.
If this car is 2311222, then Graham-like PF body is still exist and installed on another chassis (which?)

Hi guys,

Angela Cherret wrote about this Chassisnumber: first registration 12.06.1933
Cabriolet 2 Seater
But this car seems to be a lungo.

Greetings
