Alfa Romeo Giulietta Goccia 1961 Michelotti
Limitation: 100 pieces
The 1961 Michelotti-Conrero prototype Giulietta "a goccia” (“drop”) weighed about kg 750. The maximum speed reached by this Giulietta was in the order of 222 km/h (recorded at Monza autodrome), despite the fact that the car was only a four-speed version.
Giovanni Michelotti and Virgilio Conrero are two legendary names in the automotive landscape and not just within the Italian one. The name of Conrero is related to the preparation of many sports cars set up for important races. On the other hand, Michelotti was a designer of great talent. Disciple of Pietro Frua (an outstanding car stylist too), he designed in Italy cars for Abarth, Lancia (e.g. 1964 Lancia Flavia Convertible), Maserati (see 1961 Maserati Sebring, Fig. 5), for a panel of coachbuilders such as Allemano, Ghia, Moretti, Vignale (e.g. 1964 Fiat 1500 Coupe Vignale), Viotti and - abroad - for Auto Union, BMW (e.g. 1961 BMW 1500 Neue Klasse), Daf, Ford, Triumph (e.g. 1963 Triumph 2000 Saloon) and other car companies.
