The main give away is the the touring frame. Probably a ’56 to ’59 model year for the frame. Parillas were not imported into the USA until late ’57, so my guess for a year would be ’58 or ’59. A serial number check would help more. Parilla did make a race version that could be bought from the dealer (known as a Grand Sport), but the GS frame is more of a custom job than this bike. The front end is not factory, but aftermarket and the tank is the right shape for Grand Sports, but probably modified to a works racer configuration, or a commission job. Lots of attention to detail and highly polished to museum quality standards. A nice modified bike, but not an original factory racer.
