Summary

There were around 10,000 car brands and designers - most of them have disappeared. Stanguellini is one of these brands. In 1929, Vittorio Stanguellini took over the Fiat Modena dealership, which specialized in tuning and racing car construction, from his late father. However, in 1947, Stanguellini exhibited a passenger car for the first time at the Geneva Motor Show. Until the 1950s, around 50 such "road-going Stanguellini" were built, but then the company once again devoted itself exclusively to Fiat tuning and racing car construction.

Preview (beginning of the article)

In 1929, Vittorio Stanguellini took over the Fiat agency in Modena from his father Francesco, who had died young, and specialized in tuning and racing car construction. Even after the Second World War, the Fiat 500 and 1100 remained the organ donors for the Monopostos and Barchettas of the Squadra Stanguellini. They became just as popular as the Formula 3 and Formula Junior single-seaters, whose drivers included Nuccio Bertone and a number of later Ferrari star drivers. It was only natural to offer the super-fast Stanguellini two-seaters with a road-going body. At the beginning of 1948, Vittorio Stanguellini wrote to AR that he would be exhibiting a passenger car at the Geneva Motor Show, which he had to designate as a Fiat derivata Stanguellini in accordance with the specifications from Turin. It would be a modification similar to the Simca Gordini. In the AR catalog, this coupé with its groundbreaking modern design by Luigi Rapi at Bertone was then listed under Stanguellini, just as the Fiat-Abarth would later be listed under Abarth.
