OSCA, founded in 1947, stands for Officine Specializzare Costrizone Automoibli or 'specialist workshop for building motor cars' for short. Even shorter, OSCA, or Osca. MT4 stands for Maserati Tipo 4 cilindri and was the Maserati brothers' first Osca design. Fiat derived crankcase, alloy head, and 1092cc, the 71 horsepower motor was a gem, the surrounding chassis and bodywork a beauty. By 1954 the engine was out to 1453cc and 108 horsepower. OSCA was sold in 1967 to MV Agusta.
