Dang it "conedogger" you are good. I had to do some deep homework on this one. Lombardi Grand Prix/OTAS 850 or Abarth Grand Prix (and a couple of other names).
In this case it has Abarth badges. It was so dirty I'm surprised it was being driven. An oddity at best as it doesn't show the best of Italian design. |

It was so dirty I'm surprised it was being driven. An oddity at best as it doesn't show the best of Italian design. Francis Lombardi is the name of the coach works that built the car. This particular model was the Abarth tuned model. I have a somewhat unfair advantage as it regards obscure cars. My best friend in high school was in to strange orphan cars. His current obsession is the Mini Moke. He bought all of them off of Catalina Island and he is restoring them and selling them. For a while, he was in to Lotus Elan. I took a bunch of pictures of a bright red one with a model. I've been trying to remember her name just recently... im not anywhere near as good as Fiid. Show him a taillight and he can tell you what it is! |
