This Fiat 8V Berlinetta is one of 29 examples of the second-series cars that were given factory coachwork to a design penned by Fabio Rapi and featuring the unique 'stacked' headlamps. The car was completed in early March of 1954 and delivered new to the Rome-based Fiat dealership of Vincenzo Orsini. The car's first private owner was Antonio Triglia who purchased it near the end of March 1955. Like many 8V vehicles, this example was entered into competition by its owner, mostly contesting local road rallies. In April of 1957, Triglia contested the Bologna–San Luca point-to-point race.
By October of 1960, the car had been sold to another resident of Rome, Francesco Molino. In 1979, it was re-discovered in the United States in Wisconsin. In 1992, the current California-based collector acquired the vehicle and during their ownership, it was given a restoration and finished in red over tan leather upholstery. The car is currently powered by a correct-type Tipo 104 engine, from a contemporary Siata 208, equipped with two Weber carburetors and a ram-air intake duct.
Features that have been added include the Les Leston steering wheel and pair of split chrome bumperettes.By Daniel Vaughan | Dec 2022
