Bristol 407 Convertible Viotti

Vehicle Overview

The Bristol 407 Convertible Viotti: Requested by the British frim and built by Carrozzeria Viotti on the 403 Bristol chassis, this cabriolet was presented at the 1962 Turin Motor Show. Owing to the fact that this engine is capable of very high speeds, Viotti wanted to built a classical high prestige convertible. The style is simple, so as not to emphasize the already large dimensions of this vehicle. The body was relatively simple and took out some perspective, anticipating the design of the Fiat 1500 Spider. The actor Peter Sellers, who valued Bristol vehicles, owned the car for a short while. It has a steel body, a unique feature for a Bristol and still exists today.
