This car is absolutely unique. It's full name being The AC Willment Ghia. The only thing to do with Fiat is the fact that the Ghia body was originally mounted on one of it's chassis, this was later replaced by an AC Cobra one complete with race spec 7 litre engine.

A spectacular looking car, and hugely desireable.
