Le Salon Retromobile 2020 - Italian Style

2007 Maserati MC12 Versione Corsa.
I have already done a couple of posts from the 2020 Retromobile on the Ferraris and Alfa Romeos that were present.  However, there were lots of other beautiful and interesting Italian cars present.  So here there are in pictures;

A Bizzarrini built in the Sixties in Livorno.
An Italian styled Triumph TR3.  Salvatore Ruffino, the Italian Triumph distributor produced over 300 of these cars from 1958 to 1962 with help from Vignale.  It was sold as the Italia 2000.
A 1952 Siata Daina Sport.  It was produced in Turin.
The number on the Siata was that which it carried in the 1952 Mille Miglia where it finished fifth in its class.
A 1952 Fiat 8V Ottuvo.
The number the Fiat 8V wore in the 1957 Mille Miglia when driven by Antonio Siddi an Italian Olympic Bronze Medallist in the 1948 London 4 x 100 metre relay event.
The beautiful lines of the Fiat 8V.
Lancia Stratos.  This was the third Stratos built.  It was sold to Phillip Morris who used it for promotional purposes.
A 1954 Maserati A6GCS/53.  Chassis 2071.
