1956 Fiat Special

This 1956 Fiat Racing Special was found in Northern Ohio in original condition. A restoration soon began, bringing the car back to its original glory. The vehicle conforms to the 500cc Club of America 'B' classis, which was sanctioned in 1960 and 1961, until SCCA sanctioned the Formula Juniors in the United States.

The 870 pound vehicle is powered by an 817cc pushrod motor that is mated to a four-speed Fiat gearbox. The tube frame is clothed in aluminum body and rests on a 64-inch wheelbase.

Currently, the car has a VSCCA logbook and expected to receive its VDCA and SCCA logbook in the near future.
