Chassis #1298
A coupe Gran Sport Michelotti bialbero
Ada Pace drove a berlinetta "Gran Sport" (chassis 1298s, race #78) to 10th overall in the aggregate results. This car was later destroyed but I was told almost 30 years ago in Italy that some paperwork continued to exist. The implication was that the identity might be revived one day. (source: John de boer)
