The body sports coupe, produced by Bandini completely in aluminium, closely follows that of the boat allegedly, 1966 of which is the version berlinetta. It noted, however, some variations and adaptations along with new elements and unpublished. The front is very similar to the boat reference, but to make the organic roof and windshield, bonnet is more inclined and acquires a convexity she shares with the rest of coverage. Consequently, the doors have a greater height, but remains unchanged their shape, as the rear bonnet, which maintains the air side but not higher. The upper part of the rear bonnet is entirely dominated by a long and convex "lunotto" that leaves nice view of the engine and mechanics. It forgiveness instead tilted the slits near the rear wheels basically unchanged while the tail is already positively influenced by the presence of transparencies intended to kidnap the eyes of fans.

The livery original black and silver was replaced at the end of seventies with the current red race.
