Vehicle Overview
This OSCA 1600 GT2 Coupé is one of only 21 coupes made by the renowned coachbuilder Fissore in Saligliano, Italy. The car’s tubular chassis was manufactured by Gilco, the same company that built frames for Ferrari and Maserati during the 1960s, known for their precision and lightweight construction. This particular OSCA model stands out not only for its rarity but also for its advanced engineering. It features independent suspension at both the front and rear, offering exceptional handling and road comfort, a feature not commonly seen in cars of this era. The car is equipped with disc brakes on all four wheels, providing superior stopping power and further emphasizing its race-derived technology. Fissore’s hand-crafted bodywork and attention to detail made each example of the 1600 GT2 Coupé unique, while the Gilco chassis provided a lightweight yet strong foundation for the powerful twin-cam engine. This combination of cutting-edge mechanical engineering and bespoke Italian coachbuilding made the OSCA 1600 GT2 one of the most advanced and desirable sports cars of its time. The dual-overhead cam 1600cc engine, paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox, delivers a thrilling driving experience, blending racing performance with everyday usability. For those seeking even more power, the GT2 package offered 145 hp, thanks to the use of twin dual-throat Weber 42 carburetors, making it a standout in terms of both performance and design. This particular OSCA 1600 GT2, chassis 00105, is one of only three Fissore-bodied examples configured to GT2 specifications. After passing through prestigious ownerships, including Salvatore Ferragamo Spa, it was meticulously restored and remains one of the most coveted examples of the Maserati brothers’ work. With its blend of racing pedigree, rarity, and Italian craftsmanship, this OSCA 1600 GT2 stands as a testament to the Maserati brothers’ enduring legacy in automotive history.
