A 356 A or its replica? The back looks somehow odd (shortened)?

Looks like the coupe version of the same car James Dean was driving when he died.

Maybe list it as a 356 for now? It looks a bit strange (even the front?) but it's bumper-less and maybe that plays a part. I maybe even be seeing things but is there a 1952 pre-A "bent" windscreen there? If that's the case perhaps you'd not find that on a replica?

Ok, I went full detective mode on this and I've found some behind the scenes pictures :

With the visible number plate, this has led me to this picture :

which also reads 1600 Super at the back :

So, this looks like a genuine 356 A 1600 Super. Louvred deck lid suggests Carrera-like modification (see the comment below)?
