key moments & facts

Chassis 878588 was first registered and delivered to Italy in 1962.

The car is a full “matching numbers” example and remains largely original throughout, which is precisely why its current keeper chose to purchase it from Italy and bring it over to the UK.

Prior to the car being offered for sale through us, it was treated to a paint correction, engine bay detail, underside clean and fabric roof clean with Gtechniq Hood Sealant applied.

The car remained in Italy for the next 57 years, however in true Italian style, not much of its early life was documented or recorded.
