What about an encyclopedia of replicas and neoclassic cars ?

Huge task, but it would be very interesting.
\On my side, I'm now thinking about an encyclopedia of concept-cars (wiht the target of liting them all). But I'm afraid of the size of the book!

Alessandro, you said the next titles in Aesthetica series will concern Lombardi and Coriasco but I've read on another forum you prepare one about Motto... Which one will be the next ?

Motto is the next one: I'm already half-way. I had the amazing chance to be allowed to digitalize the Motto family archive. There are unbelivable cars there!

Can't wait! :thumbsup:

BTW: I enjoy your spectacular Encyclopaedia page by page!

Working on the Coriasco book. I need some help to fill a few remaining gaps.
I look for pictures and information about:
- any pre-war model
- Coriasco's personal Lancia Ardea (with which he raced the 1948 Mille Miglia. #1005
- Coriasco's personal Fiat 1100 S (MM 1949 #206 and MM 1951 #145)
- Fiat 127 coupé
- Fiat Panda torpedo
- Alfa Romeo Arna SW
- Fiat Ducato schoolbus with high-roof
- generally, any other non-Fiat vehicle (except the well-known Lancia Thema and Y10 "Style")

Your help is, as usual, much appreciated!

Hello "als15", the reply is a bit too late as your wonderful book on Coriasco is already published in the mean time, however should you make a second edition of that book then you can find 3 different Coriasco Alfa Arna based 1:10 scale design drawings in the book "Alfa Romeo Arna, the true story 1980 - 1987" ISBN-13 978-1656632500 by Matteo Licata.

Keep up the good work of making interesting books on less mainstream topics!!
