loos like a very generic font. could be from one of the following families:
swiss, zuric, even helvetica.. of course it would be something like CONDENSED or BOLD CONDENSED...

Look at the R, the G and the S. This is Helvetica and/or Swiss 721 or one of the many clones around. Try condensed bold variations.

Not a font. That is, not one font but a weird mix of fonts by a signmaker that ran out of space. Who knows.
The E can be the Humanist 521 Extra Bold Condensed (BT)
The A can be the Swiss 721 Black (BT)
The L can be the Flyer Black Condensed (Fantasia)
The I can be most anything
The N can be the Newhouse DT Extra Black (DTP Types)
The G can be the Franklin Gothic Heavy
The M can be the Newhouse DT Extra Black
The O can be most anything
The T can be the Franklin Gothic Heavy or the Flyer Black Condensed
The R can be the Futura Extra Black Condensed (or one of it's many variations)
The S can be the Futura Extra Black Condensed (or one of it's many variations - probably the Flyer Black Condensed - see the lower left side of the S)
If this would in the end happen to be a font after all then at least we know where the font maker has been borrowing ...

 Is there anything close to Formata Condensed, available in TrueType?
It doesn't need to be perfect, just looking to get close, the numbers in this font are a bit unique as well.
Thank you in advance!

Oh well, what can I say about Adrian Frutiger's best known font?
Ok, let's say it's a Swiss typeface, with a Swiss design, with its own Swiss clarity. It's probably one of the most readable (legible?) in the whole set of typefaces.
I think it's cool – not in the meaning of stylish, but cool, as a thing thrown out of the fridge. It certainly makes its job well: it's been designed for CDG's airport signs and banners. Aside from that and road signs or very conservative logos and the small print – address and the like – in the stationery, I do not think I'd use it.
Helvetica, to name another Swiss-made bestseller, has more flair to me and it's more versatile.
(and yes, I do love Switzerland: the square flag, her William Tell and all the cows. And the lakes, the mountains, the weed)

Hi,
it's might be modified by hand see the different shapes of the letters A, E, S ... I guess that the outline was added by hand. The base was a 1960th or earlier (french or traditional) grotesque. It`s no Helvetica Condensed (see the letter R) or Hanseatic (Swiss 924 BT is to condensed) but Franklin Gothic Condensed (EF or BT but not ITC) or something similar should work.
For a free font go the the abstract fonts categories and shop for a font that's sans and condensed.
Categories Sans -> Click at condesed
Categories Condesed -> Click at sans
I suggest a try with:
http://www.abstractfonts.com/font/9014
http://www.abstractfonts.com/font/13172
http://www.abstractfonts.com/font/10692
If you own a Corel Draw licence and the CD you could also have a look at the Franklin Gothic Condensed BT. But you would have no chance to avoid a lot of work. :-(
Bye bye

Hello,
Impact will not do the Job. Look at the letter 1
and then look at Helvetica Inserat and Helvetica
Condensed. Helvetica Inserat -> BT Swiss 921
