 |  |  | Cabriolet Coachwork: Vignale Chassis Num: BS535 |
Designed by Michelotti and built by Bertone, this handsome sports car is equipped with Fiat 8V running gear, including a 2-liter engine, four-speed transmission and independent suspension. Its stunning clean design provided many styling cues seen in later cars. Less than 35 of these Spiders were ever built, msot finding their way to the West Coast.
Siata, meaning Societa Italiana Applicazioni Trasformazioni Automobilistiche, was created in 1926 by Georgio Ambrosini of Turin. They specialized in producing tuning accessories for Italian automobiles, mainly Fiat. Throughout the years they created a few prototype vehicles, many of which were entered in various racing events.
The Siata 208 was produced from 1952 through 1954. Many of the mechanical components were courtesy of Fiat, such as the V8 engine that was capable of producing 140 horsepower.
Originally, the vehicle was bodied by Stablimenti Farina but was later handled by Carrozzeria Balbo. Bertone was tasked with producing a GT saloon version powered by a Chrysler engine. In total, around 32 examples were produced.
