Special car for advertising use, registered in 1953, special equipment commissioned to Fissore body shop by Mensital Industrie Alimentari S.R.L

With the 2 compressed air cannons - and the torpedo shape, thanks to a nice face with a smiling mouth and a red clown nose (torpedo head).

This was most likely 1942, and may be a forgotten gadabout car. This is due to someone finding a high quality image of this and in the corner is reads 1942 Gadabout so who knows.
