Of course caution is advised as (Italian) licenseplates were changed as was done before with for example TZ-1's and TZ-2's.
And what about the Group 2 Rally Alfetta Berlina cars? Was the Guy Frequelin 1974 Tour de Corse car also a Autodelta 116 GTAm in Berlina disguise? His teammate Beguin also drove such a car in this rally.

- Alfetta Sedan with licenseplate MI S80271 (Stommelen/Facetti at Zandvoort in 1973)
