I don’t think so but soooo close. Extra credit for calling what it is. And the color is spot-on Golf…

Ferrari 330 gtc
My favorite car as a kid...but it was shorter slightly, with no clear back up, I think. And a round dot to the inside..and flat, not concave...I can still see it on the cover of Sports Car Graphic, blood red, in the snow, from above and the backside. My memories are worn, however...

Ding ding ding!! Robert gets it. Alfa it is. The 330 gtc doesn’t have the reverse lights.
But are these actual E9 units or just very close to it. Not that it’s going to help us find additional parts inventory…

I think just close...note the "section" of the lights is concave (see on the right/first picture that they almost follow the under-cut of the ducktail), and protrudes, where ours are flat in section, like the GTC, and the e9's are separate inset lenses, while this Alfa the plastic is one unit.
 
It is very close to E9 tail light but it is not, are you guys agreed that is very unique car is any one know what kind of a car is?
 
Whole thing looks more slender...back up light is wider left to right..interesting chrome trim around the whole assembly...area between the lights looks less wide as well....Love to know the "rest of the story..."
