Stanguellini
- Chassis Number CS00159
- This 1959 Stanguellini Formula Junior has a build date of December 5, 1959.
It was imported by Alfred Momo into the United States, arriving early in 1960. Inasmuch as the front-engined Formula Juniors were essentially obsolete with the introduction of the Cooper rear-engined Type 52 and others, the Stanguellini was sold and raced around the Northeast and Midwest through the 1960s and 1970s. At one time this particular Stanguellini sold for only $250.
- Finally, Stanguellini CS00159 was rescued by vintage racer Peter Giddings in 1977. Peter owned and raced a number of Stanguellini Formula Juniors. After restoration, the car was sold to Dennis Burkey of Virginia who ran CS00159 in the Mid-Atlantic area into the late 1980s. Pam Lyford brought CS00159 to the Northwest in the early 1990s.
- The car was then purchased by the current owner in 2005. He went on to campaign the car in vintage races, including the 5oth Anniversary of Formula Junior feature at the Monterey Reunion, and most recently at the 2022 Monterey Reunion.
