Does anybody have a picture of the Giulietta with a hatchback that's in the Arese museum? I've looked all over but I can't seem to find one.

Stu- can you email me the pictures? It says that since I'm not a member, I can't view them.

I just received the Catarsi book written specifically on the Giulietta Sprint and it has a nice picture of the hatchback. Does anyone know if this was a working hatchback or possibly just a mock up? I've never seen a picture with the hatch open. This book shows many of the prototypes as well. Interesting, there is a picture showing what looks like modern bucket seats in an early prototype Sprint. They look much more comfortable that the production seats!

Chuck- do you mind scanning it, or taking a picture of it? Thanks a lot.

There were just two hatchbacks. One was red, and the one in the museum, which is sky blue. They both have an external fuel filler. BOTH cars ran and drove. No one seems to know for sure what happened to the red car.

Both are pictured in the Catarsi book. The pics on the blue one aren't quite as big and I missed the hatchback when I first went through it. I'll see if the author tells what happened to the red one. The text is in Italian so it will take me awhile to translate it.
