I just talked a friend of mine who owns a Giulietta monoposto racer of which
I posted some questions previously.
His answer simply reassured the facts and ideas that you digesters have shared:
*his car was made in '57 on order by Hoffman in attempt to race in Sebring.
*it is one of the monoposto that was raced in Sebring, and its chassis number
is listed in the registory book published in Italy<forgot the name, but
seems
like publshed by historic car organization>.
*Only 3 cars are in existence (one in Japan, one in Italy <in terribly rusty
condition>, I forgot where the other is now).
*the name"Sebring Spyder" is familiar in Italy, and the president of
Scideria del Portello (semi Alfa-works historic racing team) realized what
that means. That reassures the name"Sebring Spyder" should be authentic,
he said.
Just for your interest,
Taiju Kobayashi
'66 GTV "Corsa" (new Venolia pistons <copied Shankle's> just installed)
'91 75TS
'60 Giulietta SZ (my dad's, under cosmetic surgery, found huge pile of putty;-)
