The carrozzeria is a thing of the past.

What a terrible shame. Vince and I were lucky enough to have visited Bertone with Roberto in May last year, where we were given a personal tour by Michael Robinson. I hope the remaining collection doesn't get broken up......

Great photos Dave.

'Looks like you and Vince on a religious pilgrimage?

I've seen a photo of Mike Robinson at the Stratos 30th anniversary do in Classic and Sportscar, next to the 1240 Prototype. His hair's gone greyer, but then that was nearly 14 years ago?

The Bertone archives are being auctioned off next month.
There's a large scale model of the Zero in metallic blue. I can't see any Stratos stuff.
There might be a lot of original drawings?
The auction house is Aste Beloffi

Vince and David saw a "suitcase" with colour pallets and trim samples for the Stratos on a visit a few years ago. That'll be in the auction I think?

Would love the 308gt4 drawings.
