Where have they gone?
12/21/2015
During the book review of Harold Schwarz's "European Touring Car Championship 1970 - 1975 " , we also came across the chapter on the Fiat 128 Rally and 128 Coupés that Scuderia Filipinetti entered between 1970 and 1972. Up to four cars were prepared under the direction of Mike Parkes and competed in the 1.3-liter class. However, they initially struggled in vain against the Alfa Romeo GTA 1300 Junior due to a lack of displacement, and even homologations and more cm3 were not enough to produce a candidate for victory. Better than 4th place went to the Fiat with Walter Dona, Mikes Park, Jean Max, Grano. Chenevière or Lafosse at the wheel. Hardly anyone remembers the pretty Fiat 128s in rally or coupé Group 2 livery.
We have at least found a picture in the archive and wonder where these (4 or more) pretty cars from Schuderia Filipinetti, which competed in the European Touring Car Championship at the time, have gone.
