Italian Marques at the Automezzi
For 33 years the Automezzi has been known as the largest car collection of exotic Italian cars and motorcycles (vintage to current) in the Rocky Mountain region.
The Automezzi XXXIII will celebrate 33 years with thousands of sports car fans on the lawns of Anderson Park in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. The car show will feature over 150 Italian exotic cars, Italian sports cars, and other surprise guest cars. The lawns will be filled with historic Italian vehicles, from the turn of the century, when Fiat made its first car in 1899, to Ferrari’s newest 2023 SF90 Stradale.
Past displays have included a rare, vintage 1913 Fiat, a 1939 Alfa Romeo 6C 2500 Berlinetta Touring said to have once been owned by Mussolini. But also, the field will be filled with the most current top-selling exotic marques from all your favorite marques. As always, you will see a Supercar Showcase featureing a stellar line-up of Ferraris: the F40, F50, Enzo, and La Ferrari.
Other “two-wheeled” participants have included Italian scooters and Italian bicycles, along with rare and vintage motorcycles and a fine display of Ducati, Moto Guzzi, and Aprilia marques.
This is a very rare 1964 ATS 2500GTS Automobili Turismo eSport owned by Stephen Bell. The ATS was manufactured in Bologna, Italy, with fewer than 12 ever produced. The car won first place in its class at the 2022 Automezzi car show.
“Above is an extremely rare 1964 ATS 2500GTS Automobili Turismo eSport built with a 2.5 L 90° V8 engine and a 5-speed manual transmission. The ATS 2500 GT is an Italian sports car made by Automobili Turismo in Bologna, Italy, the first Italian GT sports car in the world to have a mid-engine layout. The ATS was designed by Franco Scaglione and engineered by Giotto Bizzarrini and Carlo Chiti. Only 12 are known to exist.” (Source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATS_2500_GT)
