OK, one last hint about our Italian looking sporty coupe: it wasn't built or sold in the Northern, or Eastern Hemispheres.

Perhaps it's from Brazil, then. Lots of specialty builders there in the '60s.

Right you are Stephen, it's the 1966 DKW Malzoni of which 35 were produced by Puma from mechanicals supplied by Vemag, the Brazilian subsidiary of DKW. After Volkswagen's takeover of Auto Union-NSU, VW do Brasil decided to supply Puma with parts to enable Puma to build an interim version the Puma DKW Malzoni GT ca 1967>
 

 
In the 1970s Puma began building the Beetle-based Puma GT which proved quite popular in Brazil.>
 

 
FWIW, the Italian-sounding name comes from Puma Automovilia's founder Genaro (Rino) Malzoni, an Italo-Brazilian auto racing enthusiast from Sao Paolo.
 
Pay attention guys, Puma will be heard from again.

Well I knew you'd get it! For the rest of you the 133 was SEAT-made but sold as a Fiat in most markets. 850 Mechanicals.

Three identifiables in this shot, though it's tough to pin an exact year on any of 'em:
