Fiat 1100 E Monterosa, 1950 that made a world tour. Number plate PA 18000.

SACO · March 11, 2013, 03:01:34 AM

Yes , 1 point for you !

targhediferro · March 11, 2013, 05:23:04 AM

I couldn't fail this one; I have a 1100 EL Monterosa 1950 (I'm going to restore it) that's perhaps the only one left among the six built, and that may be the one winning a class price at Venice's Elegance Concours in 1950. So I'm quite informed about Monterosa!

SACO · March 11, 2013, 05:33:08 AM

It's great !
Have you some photos!

It would be nice if you shared your Monterosa knowledge with us.

Any relation with SAC#430 ( Fiat 1100 E Monterosa, 1950 and a world tour ) ?

Allemano · October 15, 2013, 02:35:43 PM

I guess so! I didn't recognize it!

Can you give some more info? Who made that world tour? Where was the pic taken? And when?

Locked for SACO!

SACO · October 15, 2013, 05:00:02 PM

A world tour with departure of Palermo in 1950 !
But I don't know the driver ! ( It is difficult to translate Italian into English for me )

Allemano · October 15, 2013, 05:07:48 PM

The pic of the puzzle was made a little later and on a different occasion.

Unlocked again!

At least I can reveal the unaltered pic now:

targhediferro · October 15, 2013, 05:30:32 PM

I don't know in what occasion the quiz picture was taken, I just can add that this Fiat 1100E Monterosa was a 1949 model with PA-18000 plate.

Allemano · October 15, 2013, 05:55:28 PM

For a point I need:
the travelling man.
the place where this pic was taken and why.

The driver was Franco Nacci, publisher of a magazine called Italia Mondo..I very much doubt that two world tours were undertaken with the same car. Could the picture have been taken in 1951 after the return in Palermo?

First part is correct. It's indeed Signor Nacci.
I have it as a 1951 picture and I'm quite sure about it.
So, where was it made? Locked for you till your next reply!

Hiawatha · October 16, 2013, 03:01:37 AM

You can unlock..I have no idea.

Allemano · October 16, 2013, 03:14:45 AM

Unlocked again.

Wendax · October 16, 2013, 03:35:27 AM

The picture was taken in Munich when Signore Nacci stopped at the ADAC (German automobile club) headquarters to have his checklist signed, as a proof he has been to Munich.

thorax · October 16, 2013, 03:38:25 AM

wow!

DeAutogids · October 16, 2013, 03:40:54 AM

I was just about to post this. It was quite simple to find after the name and year was known!

targhediferro · October 16, 2013, 03:43:40 AM

I didn't know...I want to add a picture of the magazine.
