Svm #04718

#04718 was rebodied by Zagato in 1959, possibly for Carlo Antonio Mognaschi, Genova (I). Mognaschi raced it in 1959/1960 and probably sold it to Virgilio Conrero, Torino (I), in whose Squadra Conrero Tony Mognaschi was team member. It is said to have run the 1960 Le Mans trails but there is no confirmation. Michelotti rebodied this SVZ #04718 to SVM #04718 in 1961. Conrero took it to various events with the drivers Francesco De Leonibus and Carlo Peroglio. In 1963 it was raced by Francesco Susinno of Scuderia Etna/Sicilia (I). The next photo came from 1984 when it was painted rosso. In 2004 it was for sale in Italy and the new owner took the now yellow car to Oldtimergarage Vetter (CH) for restoration. Featured in various classic car magazines
