Description from the seller
Titania 1 (1966)
The missing masterpiece by Franco Scaglione
The Titania prototype was presented at the 1st Salon of Competition Cars, at the Automobile Museum of Turin, in 1966. The only person to photograph it in Scaglione’s presence was Franco Turcati. Built on Ford Cortina 1500 mechanics, the Titania vanished into thin air right after the end of the Show, leaving no trace.
Subsequently, Franco Scaglione gave rise to masterpieces such as the iconic Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale and Intermeccanica cars, solidifying his status as a great automotive designer.
