ASA 1000 GT. Artwork by Italian grand masters.
For a long time, Enzo Ferrari argued that a number of twelve cylinders was the minimum standard for the cars that could bear his name. Nevertheless, the Italian car grandmaster revised his starting point. Ferrari wanted to generate a stable income stream to continue to support its core business. Ferrari was looking for additional finance for the racing activities of the Italians. It forced the Italians to develop a car with a smaller engine capacity. That step foreshadowed the ASA brand, which existed from 1962 to 1967.
