Description
This car was built at the Officine Patriarca in Rome and bodied in Ferrara by the Morelli brothers, famous for their splendid bodies in which they dressed Maserati and Osca. This car was used by Mario Leone in the 1965 season and later by Tullio Flavio racing under the colours of the Patavium stable in Padua. Initially built on a 500 Sport engine body, it was later upgraded by the latter to a Junior version to run in the Formula Monza and 750 categories. The car has recently been restored to its original state, both in terms of the engine, bodywork and interior, restoring its original livery. It is now ready to return to the track. A detailed photographic documentation of the historic period in which it raced and its recent restoration is available with the car.
