AI Listing Summary
This 1961 Fiat Abarth 1000 Bialbero 'Record Monza' by Carrozzeria Zagato, chassis '987382', boasts a racing history, including class wins at Monza and Varana in 1981. Formerly part of the Collezione Maranello Rosso for 33 years, it requires mechanical reconditioning due to long-term museum display, including engine and clutch work.
Condition
4
The car is described as being in long-term museum display, with some mechanical issues noted. The engine is tight to turn, bore 3 shows rust, and a cylinder head nut is missing. The brakes are binding, the clutch is mechanically worn and noisy, needing attention. Expert inspection and careful re-commissioning are recommended before use. This suggests a condition that requires significant reconditioning.

Description
The Fiat Abarth 1000 Bialbero RM Coupé Zagato was fitted with the new 1000 twin-cam engine that had been developed directly from the 750cc Bialbero power unit developed by Abarth.
This new model won the Carrozzeria Zagato styling house the Compasso d'Oro prize for 1960.
The Fiat 600-derived 4-cylinder water-cooled engine had bore and stroke of 65m x 74mm, displacing 982cc.
On a compression ratio of 9.3:1 and breathing through two twin-choke Weber 36DCL4 carburettors – the 1000 Bialbero delivered around 90bhp at 7,100rpm.
Transmission was via a four-speed gearbox, the brakes were drum-type both front and rear.
Wheelbase was only 2000mm, and front and rear track widths 1150 and 1160mmm.
The car weighed around 550Kg -1,212lbs - ready to race.
Top speed was quoted as 200km/h – no less than 124mph – which emphasises the wisdom of Carlo Abarth's often-declared concentration upon compact size, low frontal area, and lightweight construction.
