Marciano
1972 Marciano 268a
This car is an Alfa Romeo Montreal rebodied "a la" Alfa 33 Stradale for a private collector in Italy, Mr Vincenzo Marciano. Car is known as "Alfa Romeo Marciano 268A". Car was built in 1972 (maybe with the help of some guys from Autodelta). Take a V8 from Montreal, replacing carburetors with electronic fuel injection, the wheels of the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale, windshield and headlights from Ferrari, Jaguar differential, build a frame with small tubes of molybdenum steel, design and implemented a low and sleek lightweight body. Ok, you got a single copy at the sight is breathtaking and listen cause chills and goose bumps: the Marciano 268A.
The Granturismo was tested and photographed in Pisa, adding art to art in the magnificent setting of Piazza dei Miracoli. And perhaps a miracle if you can speak after years of study and research is built like a car, an expression of individuality and passion that drives a person to create a car so exclusive. The heart and soul came from the glorious Alfa Romeo, fortunately, served to create a dream supply of power and credibility and ensuring that the imagination became reality. The car has seen a little competition in the 70's to the early 80's.
Cerrina
First project of a 22-year-old named Vincenzo Marciano, who in the '70s dreamed of running with a car built on their own. He worked at Pistoni Asso (Ace Pistons), and in his spare time, given the passion for racing cars, he had improvised a builder, building a tube frame with iron, an Alfa Romeo 1.3 GT engine and a transmission from a Fiat 600. While not yet an expert panel beater had equipped his car with an aluminum body.
It took its name from the Cerrina track near Turin, designed specifically for the purpose of going for a run on the track where there was a championship for homemade prototypes. Though the project is completed, the Cerrina track closed, and the young Vincenzo had to abandoned his dream of being able to run on that track. He only ran the car in the Ponsacca area and subsequently the car was sold and then later destroyed.
