1953 Siata 208CS Berlinetta Vehicle Profile

Berlinetta
Coachwork: Balbo

Based on the Fiat 8V, the Siata 208CS Coupe was styled by Stablimenti Farina and built especially for the Mille Miglia. The first of these Farina-built cars was shown at the Turin Motor Show in 1952. Farina built another three cars before it closed, and then the rest of the chassis went to Carrozzeria Balbo in Turin.

This car is one of nine bodied by Balbo. It once participated in the Mille Miglia but it did not finish. The original buyer is not known, but in 1959 the car was sold to Kim Macleod of Philadelphia. After being enjoyed by several more American owners, it went to the Rosso Bianco Collection in Germany in 1984. Its current owner purchased the car in 2008 and restored it.
