EDITORIAL 4 5 THE ABARTH WORLD The opening words by Carlo Abarth say it all. This is our world, it is our work, but above all it is our passion. Those few lines, written back in the 1950’s to introduce the cars produced by the newly founded Abarth&C, are both a starting point and a milestone for the future as we go about our everyday activity. A starting point, because they perfectly capture one man’s ingenious idea, the creative spark, the intuition without which nothing would have been possible. And a milestone for the future, because they lay out before us a journey marked by challenges, adrenaline, and competition. It is therefore in this perspective that we are proud to present you the trial issue of the new Abarth World. A publishing project concerning performance&prestazioni, a preferential channel that collects ideas, suggestions and proposals, tells stories, presents novelties and previews all over the world. But in particular a way to share the great passion that has always united us under the symbol of the scorpion. Have fun and enjoy it!

    PRESS RELEASE // JANUARY 2018 THE ABARTH SAGA, A TASTE OF THE SWISS COLLECTION OF ENGELBERT MÖLL AT THE RETROMOBILE SHOW Reborn 10 years ago, the Italian racing car market with the scorpion outstripped all the major names during the post-war boom. This amazing adventure will be recounted during the Retromobile show through 22 models taken from Engelbert Möll’s magnificent Swiss collection CARLO ABARTH, A CHARACTER ! When it comes to wizards with mechanics, France had Amédée Gordini. Italy had Carlo Abarth. On 15 November 1908, Dora Taussig, heir to a textiles company, gave birth to a baby boy with a strong character: Karl Abarth, mostly know under the name of Carl. As a teenager, he showed a strong interest in mechanics, particularly everything to do with motorcycles. Initially, he worked for Castagna & C in Vienna, but then his career The Engelbert Möll’s collection path changed when he joined the Motor Thun workshop (run by Copyrights : Rémi DARGEGEN Count Thun). When one of its drivers defected, he found himself competing in Austria’s motorcycle grand prix. He raced the fastest time in the free trials and the qualifying heats: Karl had entered the big boys’ playground. The die has been cast and it was the beginning of a series of victory. His reputation extended well beyond Austria: he managed to win a wager that he could beat the Orient Express on the Vienna-to-Ostend stretch. In 1938, he was asked to race for Italy – the birthplace of his own father who had come back to live in Merano, in the Trentino.

  • 1949 Aosta – Gran San Bernardo (Corsa in Salita = Racing Hill Climb) of 28 August, 1949 Presentation Edited by John De Boer – the Italian Car Registry (10/22/2019)
    1949 Aosta – Gran San Bernardo (Corsa in Salita = Racing Hill Climb) of 28 August, 1949 Presentation edited by John de Boer – The Italian Car Registry (10/22/2019) The captions are mine but the document images should be credited to files held by the Revs Institute in Naples, Florida. This material came from the Joel Finn Collection which contains additional items from Guy Warburton in the UK. A blank entry form Proof Of Liability Insurance for Guy Warburton who raced in a works Allard. Unfortunately, I have no image of this Allard during the event but Warburton wrote down his elapsed time. He also recorded some other times. His written times agree with results that were published. Entries in the Sport 750 and Sport 1100 categories. Note that these smaller categories seemed to be of little interest to Guy Warburton and his Allard. The “Cisitalia” entries were (all but race #102?) prepared by the almost-new “Abarth & Co.” The cars were now marked “SQUADRA CARLO ABARTH” rather than “Squadra Piero Dusio”. Entries in the Sport (Over 1100cc) and Formula 2 & Formula 1 categories. “Gui Warburton” clearly paid more attention to all of these “larger” cars. Focusing on the Sport 750 category: #28 Mario Paesetti entered and raced in his “Fiat”, actually a Siata SC, chassis 006. Another “Fiat”, race #8, is a Stanguellini (chassis CS*04071*) prepared by Rodolfo Patriarca for Sesto Leonardi. The Stanguellini-prepared engine was removed during 1949 and a Giannini engine (G1-021) was fitted. The change was not recorded in official documents until December, 1949 but may well have happened earlier.
