This child in this picture is alleged to be Aryton Senna. My question is "what model Alfa is the car"?

It looks a lot like this 1960 2000 Berlina that was recently listed on BaT: 1960 Alfa Romeo 2000 Berlina Discussed on the BB in this thread: 1960 Alfa Romeo Berlina in BAT now

Perhaps the Brazilian version of the 2000, made by FNM?

 

[yvesmontreal]

Yes, absolutely.

Yes, I agree with all these responses. I was not familiar with the grille and nose treatment so I posed the question. The car on BaT does resemble the one in the picture. I'm guessing that the factory shipped the fundamental vehicles and permitted the local agencies to apply touches that would appeal to the potential buyers.

Thanks for the responses.

To the best of my knowledge, the cars were built entirely in Brazil, under license from Alfa Romeo. They were not shipped in and finished there. they were built and sold by FNM as FNM's, not as Alfas. Alfa-designed and licensed commercial vehicles were also produced. There is a Wikipedia entry for FNM that provides additional information.

Ah ha, thanks for the info.

Slick. It took a real imagination to come up with this design.
