Brand & Model History:
Carrozzeria Monviso was a coachbuilding company active in Turin from 1944 to 1955, founded by Alessandro Casalis. The company started by building utility vehicles such as ambulances and hearses made from war surplus materials, but also manufactured bodies for Fiat chassis. The company's philosophy was to produce these bodies like series products: assembly precision and build quality had to be comparable to that of other automobile manufacturers. Modern machines were used, and a type of production line, adapted to the company’s lower production capacity, allowed production times to be significantly shortened. For cost reasons, production was limited to a smaller number of body variants and models, but these stood out for their high build quality.
The flagship model was called “Stella Alpina” and was based on the Fiat 1100’s technology and chassis; it was produced as a coupe, spider, and convertible. In the 1950s, Monviso produced bespoke models based on the Fiat 600 and Lancia Aurelia, often on behalf of Ghia, which took over the company in 1955.
Condition & History:
After a complete restoration strictly following the original production sheet and carried out by experienced professionals, this vehicle shines once again in its former glory. It is in concours condition and has previously been successfully evaluated for registration with the Mille Miglia.
The body and undercarriage were fully repainted after a thorough disassembly of all components, with all sheet metal parts remaining original. The chrome is in perfect condition, well-aligned, and has a glossy finish. The new convertible top works perfectly.
The interior is original and has been renovated with the appropriate materials.
The engine has been replaced during its lifetime, but it matches the original year of production and is in perfect working condition. Equipped with two Weber dual carburetors, the 4-cylinder engine of the Fiat 1100 delivers 63 horsepower.
