Auto 1955 by Carlo Biscaretti di Ruffia "Auto 1955" is a concept car designed by Carlo Biscaretti di Ruffia in 1955. The car was created as part of an exhibition at the Valentino Castle in Turin, Italy, which aimed to showcase the latest technological advancements in the automotive industry. The design of the "Auto 1955" was inspired by the streamlined shapes of aircraft, with a teardrop-shaped body that tapered towards the rear. The car had a two-tone paint scheme, with a silver body and a blue roof. The interior of the car was equally futuristic, with a dashboard made of clear plastic and a steering wheel that looked like it had been taken from a plane. Under the hood, the "Auto 1955" was powered by a 1.2-liter, four-cylinder engine that produced 57 horsepower. The car had a top speed of around 90 miles per hour (145 kilometers per hour), which was respectable for a car of its era. Although the "Auto 1955" was never intended for mass production, it had a significant influence on the design of cars that followed it. Its streamlined shape and futuristic features were ahead of their time and helped to inspire a new generation of designers. The condition of the book is fair. The pages inside the book are clean. There is general wear on the book because of it's age.
