At first inspection this most attractive little Abarth 750 Bialbero’s engine
proved by hand to turn freely, its cylinder bores look clean and in good
condition, and the water pump is also free to rotate within its housing.
The power unit thus has the potential to be started with further
investigation and work completed to the electrics and fuel system. The
clutch system is operating and all gears could be selected.

We also found that the braking system is operable but would
recommend that it is subject to a full strip and rebuild prior to the car
being used.

As with all these cars from long-term Maranello Rosso Collection
museum display at Falciano we recommend expert technical
inspection and re-commissioning before a new owner uses this
delightfully original and unspoiled 750 Bialbero ‘Record Monza’
Coupé in earnest. Overall it presents in very good cosmetic condition
apart from minor bodywork damage to the body’s nose. Its interior
has a wonderful ‘time machine’ feel yet in remarkably good order and
it is plainly a very fine surviving example of this immensely successful
and exciting type. It would provide instant access to many of the
world’s leading Historic racing and concours events and promises
the successful bidder many miles of truly entertaining use.

Please note this vehicle is subject to import tax should it remain in
the EU.
