Hi
All good questions which may or may not have answers. When we owned Stradale #101, it was supposed to be the first "production" model, delivered new to Henry Wessells, who know Carlo Chiti quite well. The original prototype was supposed to be #001, but the museum car is #012, so perhaps there were two 4 head light cars. I collected a lot of photos of most of the Stradales, including the prototype. The prototype seemed to change over the various pictures, so I guessed that it was continually modified. I visited Carrozeria Marazzi, who built the bodies, but couldn't communicate with them very well. They apparently built one for Gina Lollabriggita. Not sure if the one in the Youtube clip is hers. Ours is pictured in another Youtube video, with it being driven around a parking lot and loaded on a trailer. Most of the ones that I got photos of were different in details. They were hand built at Marrazzi and assembled at Autodelta, as far as I know. There have been various lists of serial numbers, including what is in Ed McDonough's book, but none are complete. I gave Ed all the info that I had, but it's still a guessing game.

33 Stradale

Fusi lists 18 produced, but I'm not sure that even that many were built. The various special bodied show cars are part of the Stradale production, so there may only be 12 or so actual Stradales.

33 Stradales

Hi All
Just found a list of cars that were for sale from the Peter Kaus Rosa Bianca Collection in Grmany. It lists a whole bunch of Type 33s, including a Stradale with dual head lights. No serial numbers however. Someone must have a serial numbered list. They were sold off at auction of a period of time.
It seems that there must have been more than 1 or 2 of the 4 head light versions.
