The Fiat 850 Daino Spider by Carrozzeria Boneschi.
The Fiat 850 Daino was exhibited at the 1964 Turin Auto Show by coachbuilder Boneschi. This 850 based Spider was called “Daino” (Fallow Deer) and remained a one-off.
At the turn of the 60s, Carrozzeria Boneschi, together with the designer Rodolfo Bonetto, gave life to a stylistic movement called “Linea Tesa”. As the name suggests, this design style features knife edged lines and clean cuts, in contrast with the trends of the time. This bravery shown by Carrozzeria Boneschi was not rewarded by success, but it was somehow a precursor of the 70s and 80s style.
