Equipment
Chrome wire wheels, Avon blackwall tires, 289 271hp Ford, 4 speed, Panasonic radio. A lot of homebuilt to it and an awkward nose typical of Fissore but an attractive profile. Large gaps and ripply fiberglass but expertly painted, upholstered and trimmed and with brilliant chrome. Shown at Pebble Beach in 1996 and featured in Automobile Quarterly in 1999. No Reserve.
Market commentary
Not only attractive and rare, but also lefthand drive. It would be understandable, if abhorrent to Trident aficionados, to customize the nose to get rid of the Avanti fender peaks and the awkward grille. With rarity, performance and a quality restoration, the new owner got some unusual bragging rights for a modest price.
