Name That Car Clock: Veglia 2″ Diameter Analog

I've been harvesting car clocks at junkyards for a few years now, stockpiling them for a project that requires at least two dozen functioning timepieces. Here's one of the prizes of my collection. Believe it or not, this elderly mechanical clock, from a country not known for reliable machinery, still works! So, guess the year/make/model of the car that yielded this fine clock for my collection, then make the jump to see if you were right.

1974 Fiat 124 Sport Spider

It probably wasn't a very challenging process of elimination to narrow this choice down to something Italian from the 1960s or 1970s, and from there Fiat— being the most common junked Italian car from that era— was the obvious call. Did you get it right?
