Yes! This particular car was subjected to multiple changes in configuration during it's racing career. Now locked for you to identify the car more specifically by providing either:


  • Chassis number
or
  • Year, event and driver shown

The point is yours!

This is Fiat 750 Giannini chassis #035785, as constructed and raced by Dominico Ogna (Fiat Topolino A chassis with Giannini-prepared Fiat 750 cc motor). The puzzle image shows the car being piloted by Ogna in the 1950 Mille Miglia (race #325) in its original cycle-fendered siluro configuration (see below).

This car was the subject of a previous AP puzzle, however, that puzzle image featured the car in a later form, wearing full barchetta coachwork at the 1954 Mille Miglia.

History of 035785 in the MM:

1948 - Dominic Ogna #1038 (siluro body with cycle fenders)
1950 - Dominic Ogna #325 (siluro body with cycle fenders)
1952 - Dominic Ogna #2345 (siluro body with fixed fenders)
1954 - Dominic Ogna #2345 (barchetta body)
