Vignale should do so well with their ‘68 offerings. We will draw a dispairing curtain over items like Maser and Matra coupes with fake ports in the rear quarters, not to mention the mid-50s American color scheme of crimson and cream for the poor Matra. Most intriguing (not to be confused with most tasteful) Vignale offering was reputedly styled in America anyway, a yellow and off-brown station wagon with imitation yellow fur rug in the luggage compartment, parcel rail on the roof and air conditioning. All this and a Ferrari 330 chassis. Coco Chinetti, son of the US importer, and Bob Peak an industrial illustrator of things like movie credits (Grand Prix) expect to sell several dozen a year.
This very modern Ferrari-wagon style came from Coco Chinetti and Bob Peak of the US. Using the Ferrari 330 chassis, they hope to sell the Vignale-built wagon in dozen lots . . . somewhere. |
