Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spiaggina, 1963, by Carrozzeria Corna. A first generation Giulietta saloon that was converted into a wooden-roofed beach car by the Corna brothers. The project involved crafting a removable wooden top, wood bumpers, and unique 2-door bodywork. The car was taken off the road and stored in 1984 to be rediscovered in 2002. Restored between 2012 and 2020, it is now part of the Stuart Parr Collection.

Fissore Aruanda, 1964. A city car concept designed by Ari de Rocha, a Brazilian architecture student. The futuristic mono box design featured a sliding perspex canopy that slid backwards and forwards to allow access to the cabin though the high cowl line made getting in and out somewhat inelegant. Based on a Fiat 500, the proposal was that it could be ether petrol or electrically powered. It didn't progress beyond Fissore's prototype
