Kind of looks like a older version of this car.. hmm.. at least this is the new car inspiration came from in design, i would think.

Tcar - well its Italy - and the clue is Modena and its not a Ferrari.

Early 50's Mazzer?
Looks similar to an A6 Maserati... Pinin-esque curves, but that grill just doesn't look like any A6 I've seen...

A name from the history of Italian racing with famous friends.

Modena, Italy - Yes, this is a motor--and motor racing--town, home of Ferrari and Maserati, a place where *********** made its own racing cars for decades and where a great many other hallowed and/or forgotten names have been attached to extraordinary automobiles. The lavish, round, failed Bugatti factory is just up the road in Campogalliano, and the Lamborghini works is not far away, either.

1966 Stanguellini!!!!!!!!!!!!

StevoRocket 11-08-2005 03:42 PM

Yes yes yes! but not so sure about the year.

http://www.stanguellini.it/

I saw it in Florence where it was accompanied by some old Fiats - I had never heard of the make.
Although I couldnt find this exact model on their web site - the 1950 style 1100 cc sports cars are very similar - one web site said Bertone was involved with design as well as Scaglietti.

"Vittorio Stanguellini, a FIAT dealer in Modena, began racing before the war in 1100 cc Ballilas and following the end of the hostilities in 1946 he started to manufacture his own cars based on FIAT parts. Stanguellini also developed his own engines and his 750cc and 1100cc sports car won numerous races in Italian national championships.
Following the introduction of F Junior in 1958 Stanguellini built a batch of cars which were immediately successful winning the Italian Championship in 1958. In 1959 Stanguellini dominated the new International Championship with Swiss driver Michel May taking title and newcomers (and future GP winners) Wolfgang von Trips and Lorenzo Bandini taking wins in their "Stangs". The Stanguellini-built cars always had an excellent reputation for the quality of their cars and although they were eclipsed by the arrival of the F Junior Cooper they continued to build cars for several years.
"The first completely new engine developed by Stanguellini, the 750 twin-cam, emerged in 1950. This was fitted to the 750 Sport Bialbero (or twin-cam) with a body designed by Reggiani (although one was built with a body by Scaglietti) and was immediately successful. Numerous national titles absolute and class victories were claimed by Stanguellini in the mid-1950's using this engine, both in the 750 Sport Bialbero and also in the single-seater earlier developed with the 1500 engine. Cars were also entered in Le Mans and other such races, a noteworthy victory being taken in the 1957 Sebring 12 hour race. "
