ASA 1000 GT Coupé

Vehicle Overview

Bertone was asked to create a body on those refined mechanics and came up with a small, Italian-style coupé with a low radiator grill, faired headlights, fastback rear end but essentially without any innovative ideas, although the car was exceptionally equilibrated and attractive. The Ferrarina made its debut on the Bertone stand at the 1961 Turin Motor Show, where it monopolised the attention of critics and members of the public. The project was later ceded to the De Nora family for industrialisation by their company called ASA and the car rappeared at the 1962 Turin Show with its final 1000 GT designation.
