It's in the Auburn/Cord museum. Made me think this is where GM got the body styling for the original Corvette

It's a Cisitalia, roadster 202, not sure on the model, Italian car from Turin, started in 1948.

They have a similar Cisitalia in the Museum of Modern Art in NYC. The one in NYC is a coupe and red. I believe that it is in the collection as the first example of an envelope bodied car (no seperate fenders).

The Cisitalia Grand Prix car was designed by Ferry Porsche and was way ahead of its time. The cars were made in France.

The one shown is a 1952 Cisitalia. The picture I took of the info card didn't turn out, so that's all I can remember about it. |
