They only made a handfull, they were race cars and straight 8's if memory
serves me. They are incredibly beutiful cars and VERY expensive now. The
70's dolomite was named after them, like the alfetta was named after a pre
war racer and so many other nuovo cars....and bikes...nuovo saturno anyone....
Dunno if there is anything on them on the web, I've never been very good at
surfing...
