Two cars book-ending the entire production run of Isotta Fraschini are expected to take part in this year’s Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, thanks to renowned Italian collector Corrado Lopresto.
The Isotta enthusiast first discovered his passion for the marque as a young boy, while playing in the back of his uncle’s example. He went on to buy several significant models from the firm’s history, while his garage near Milan houses the marque’s complete factory archives.
Among his collection are two highly important models – the very first prototype, dating from 1901, and the last Isotta Fraschini chassis ever built, a Boneschi-bodied car from 1948.
