The first Alitalia colour scheme was only used during 1975.
Maiga didn't co-drive for Munari during 1975. So was it a practice car for the 1976 Safari, or some other rally in 1976? All cars entered from the beginning of 1976 would have the later Alitalia colour scheme.
The make shift roof scoop is exactly the same as the CF2 had when they picked it up.
Don't see any safari spare wheel mount points on the roof and it looks like the aeriel was in the middle of the roof. Safari cars were on a rear corner of the roof to clear the roof framework.
1975 Safari cars didn't carry the spare on the roof John. It was over the boot, and the aerial was in the usual middle of roof position.
It's the name on the door that has me foxed??
I can only think that they left another one behind the following year from when the CF picked up theirs?
I agree, it's a real puzzle, judging by these other photos multiple body parts were dumped in the same location - what a find.

Like all the other GRP IV cars this one was taken off the production line and obviously started life as a red Stradale, judging by the colour of the inside door panel.

Looks like the remains of two cars or additional spares? There are two nose sections (or parts thereof) in Vince's last set of photos. It also looks like the pictures were taken in 1990? Anybody thought about asking Thomas Popper - I'm sure he'd know.

Tub paint doesn't match Alitalia door - looks more Chardonnet blue.
???!! Rumsfeld Known Unknowns ?
So that's chassis number 1837 and scocca 403 ?
