Lucchini, Porto Mantovano, Italy.  This Italian company has been producing open cockpit sports cars for many years, often for use in hillclimbs but also endurance racing and often with Alfa Romeo engine..  This model dates back to 1990. Again some used 3 litre Alfa Romeo 24 valve engines and some raced the circuits and some did the hillclimbs, mostly in Italy but also France..I believe the one in the photo has an Alfa Romeo V6 engine.
