Barchetta Coachwork: Touring Chassis Num: 0020M Engine Num: 0018M   The eighth Barchetta (serial 0020M, engine 0018M) has a 'lusso' or luxury interior and was completed in May 1949. This Barchetta has an early, but not fully documented racing history. It raced in the Targa Florio in Sicily in April 1950, but did not finish. It raced at Palermo in June 1951 and again failed to finish. It is also believed to have raced in the Giro di Calabria and the Pescara 12 hours in 1953. It was found in June 1958 in Trieste by Adolf 'Ace' Rosner who was in the US diplomatic corps in Vienna. Rosner sold this car to John and Elaine Bond, the publishers of Road & Track magazine, in September 1959 and it was featured in the December 1959 issue of that publication.
