Unique Retro Design
The retro-penned racer is the work of coachbuilder and restoration specialist, “Creative Workshop” that’s based in Dania Beach, Florida. Dubbed “Sport Speciale”, this one-off creation was influenced in terms of styling by the designs of famous racecars of the late 1950’s and early 1960’s like the Ferrari TR59/60, Aston Martin DBR1, and Maserati 450S. Details include original Veglia gauges, a Nardi steering wheel, original Marchal and Carello lights and Magneti Marelli switches.
