Carlo's latest mystery

Hi Carlo,

It looks to me like the alloy car in the middle of image that you gleaned from Ferrari Chat is either a Cisitalia or a Cisitalia wanna-be. More information would be very nice. It looks like one of two cars allegedly made in a similar style but there have been persistent rumors of a third, not supported by any period documentation that I've seen.

The red "Can-Am"ish looking thing behind could be a number of things with "Abarth" coming to mind most readily. On the left, Lancia B20 (or similar) and of course an E-Type Jaguar in the distance just to make the photo not as interesting as it might be. Nothing against E-Types, mind you. Just a bit too "successful" (from a marketing standpoint) to be truly interesting.

Best regards.

John de Boer
